Hey Buddy, when you add the males back to the big tank, do you ever experience aggression problems from the other males, or does everyone settle back in without too much issue?

Actually I've only removed one larger fish from the tank after it was settled. And that was the Red one in my Avitar. The first time I moved him was shortly after I started the big community. Because he was being to agrresive too a couple tank mates. I reintroduce him just a few days later. And he locked up with another dominate male one of the ones he previous beat up onright away. But thank god after several hours it seddled down. With no more real issues. But several mounts later I took the same fish out with the planing on breeding him to a blood pairot. This time he was out of the tank for a few months. When I put him back in the community he was quite smaller then his old rivals. They grew much quicker in the big tank. So this time he was chased and picked on for a few hours. But the big Xiloaensis tank boss kind of put a stop to it. And everything went back to normal. So this does worry me when I have to put this guy back. When adding or replacing smaller guys say up to 10" it's never been a problem.
 
Ok, thanks. Good luck on his reintroduction to the gang!
