EBJD

[Loves severums]

what should i do my EBJD is chaseing 2 of my geo.

 

[manlyfish]

i'd go with the third one

Just keep an eye on them. I've had fish chase each other for years without any harm. Personally, watching cichlids be cichlids is what makes all the work worthwhile.

I would leave everything the way it is unless you start to see physical damage to your Geos. The only other problem I could see is if they get super stressed and stop eating or drastically change their behavior.

I didn't think about that and voted for the first option, but I agree with you, I guess I just automatically assumed the ebjd was causing physical damage to the geos.

would that help?

imo no, that probably will just add to the problem. If you want to attempt to solve the problem by spreading out the aggression (which actually can work) you'd be much better off adding more robust species, like silver dollars, giant danios, etc. But be careful not to overcrowd your tank.
