i have a 10 to 11inch ck,
in with the following
15 inch RTG arowana
big ornate
albino senegal
2x redhooks
2x spotted metynis
2x silver dollar
2x tinfoil barb
11 clown loaches ( 3 to 5 inches range of size)
1x 5 to 6 inch dat
sweetheart parrot
6bar 5 inch
8 to 9 inch flagtail
when i put the CK, this CK has a dislocated jaw from a young age, not usually fiesty, was with a 17 inch red aro before, moved it to this big tank, it was shy at first, then 3 days it resumed eating, and after 1 week, today, i noticed that it would chase other fish away from the feeding area when it wants to eat, which is relatively normal, the clown loaches would be chased away, then they would return as if nothing chased them away, the usual.
but i found that the arowana had a small nip on its fin, top of tail...dorsal fin a the back. 1 spotted metynnis had abit of its tail nipped.
should i be worried?
the only fish it could be i think would be the knife.. the dat never harasses anyone, kinda just minds its own business.
will the CKs aggression subside?
the thing is, if the CK gets too close to the aro, the aro sometimes chases it away and shows it who is boss, the ARO is definatley boss, i mean, everyone stays away from the monster lol
but at night when thehy are sleeping, the CK is boss cos he is the only one awake with the ornate and bichirs./
tank dimensions are 210cm x 83cmd x 70cmh. 1200 litres.
