Fighting for rank

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I have 6. I have 3 that I've had since I've had since I started the tank and 3 newer ones. Proud to announce that everyone eats pellets and krill :) Now just hoping they can keep from killing each other lol When would I be able to remove all dithers?
 
So everything has been great for a couple of weeks after adding silver dollars. There has been a definite alpha until tonight. Now I'm noticing what I think is the #2 bass fighting a lot with the alpha. And they are both what seems like taking their anger out on everyone else in the tank. Does anybody know around what size/age the pecking order will be established? I thought it was already, but this current battle proved me wrong.
 
Yeah these two are constantly chasing everyone else and lip locking with each other. They are definitely competing for something. Could it be competing for a female? They are around 6" or so
