Look out for torn fins. Add some cover to reduce territory agression if it does happen. This is an example of a 13” Palmas beating up a 10” Del over territory and freindship. He’s still not keen on sharing a space with anyone but the moke.
Appreciate the feedback and pics of what to look for ??… so far everyone hates the Lap ??
… not sure y as hes the 2nd largest in the bunch and theres two small 6-7” endli that go unnoticed. He also eats the most so the tables may turn for him one day. Have a 2nd 10” lap same size on the way this week to give him a break lol… nothing as bad as uve pictured tho ?… bit of mouthing/fleeing so far. Surprisingly the last addition of the 13” PBB has been beneficial and calmed the group down. Hoping the more i add the less any 1 fish becomes a target.

Everyone's experience will be different with aggression and territorial disputes. I remember a few years back

gave me a wc endli and immediately after placing it into the 180 it attacked my cb endli. I got it out asap and traded it for store credit at a reputable lfs. Hopefully things stay like it is for you.
If you do notice territorial agression add some kind of hides to prevent swimming to fast into glass, and adding more variation and therefore more territory.
My 180 has nothing but sand in it and my 3 laps and endli are good. I did notice a little aggression between one of the laps when I first got them.

Devon gave me some good fish as well over the yrs ??… solid dude for sure.
And agreed, fingers crossed for everyone “playing nice”… if not, theres always another tank lol… plan to use my 500 for any aggressors or ones who outgrow the group. Already pushin it with 6”-13” range ?…
Yeah, not talking about a little aggression. If you start to notice things like my picture, add some more hides. I added plants and a lava rock, and it’s a lot better. You can’t train them to not bite each other, you can only add things to prevent agression. Or you can let it resolve itself.
And i said i was done for a while ??… New ? for the party pile… 12” Lap… Still waiting for my barton garnet to ship, supposedly august 10th ? finally gettin close after a month wait…
Gluttons… i only offer shrimp once a week and they slam down… pellets every cple days… New lap has decreased the bit of aggression and has “buddied” up with the PBB. Current stock is 3 endli, 2 lap, 1 PBB… Wish my garnet would ship already ?… its been delayed again until sept. 19th ?. This is gettin stupid.
