I take the fish from severly neglected tanks. For example some of the mbuna here are survivors from a suoer neglected tank in which wc hasnr been done at all and they were 5 left out of 40 fish in like 3 mounths. Im not reciving any money or helo this is all from my own and some friend money and we're trying to do the good for the fish. We have 3 cichlids tank 3 catfish tanks, one live bearears tank, 1 community tank, 1 gf tank 1 american cichlids tank and 2 betta tanks. All of those fish(over a 100) are rescued from horrible conditions..

Commendable in my opinion and unfortunate they were previously in those conditions. Just curious-- do you ever adopt them out to someone responsible and equipped for them or are you keeping them for life? At this rate you could end up with a lot of fish!

Im giving them for adoption , but not as much as i would want beacuse its really hard to find really responsible and caring familis for fish

Aggression is the nature of the beast. Chasing, nipping, and lip lock squabbling (usually over terrortory or right to mate) are always going to exist in the tank to an extent. As long as there is no killing you are doing ok.

Even a lone cichlid will fight with its own reflection.

I would add in additional to outright killing, you are OK as long as there is not excessive harassment that can lead to illness and death.
