So I moved my juvy chocolate cichlid into the 75 with the green severum. I thought sev's were supposed to be mellow? He/she is BOSSY. The only fish in the tank that it ignores are the bottom-dwellers. The ctenopomes get their share chasing, though. I think I may get rid of one each of the leopards and kingsleyaes, and move a leopard to my 38, so the 75 will have more space as the fish get bigger. Any suggestions to chill out the severum? I love the sev and chocolate both quite a bit, and I can't put up any more tanks....
bossy severum

My Female severum was real bossy and would chase the other fish for hours i had to get rid of her. She was shreading the other fishes fins and i had had enough so i took her back.
I also had to get rid of my large female because of her attitude. Tried different arrangements of decor multiple times and she never stopped permamently pestering my younger male.
hmmmm
Mine chases the ctenopomas around a bit, but no harm done. I guess I'll have to wait and see if the chocolate grows up quick or gets fed up. The chocolate is still considerably smaller than the severum, so...I'm crossing my fingers.

My Chocolate was bossed around by her earlier, not a whole lot though, but as soon as he got around the same body size (which was quite quickly) he didn't stand for any of it and fought back.
