I’m very new to mbuna but in my 55 gal tank of about 15 fish two have already been killed and it’s like a big blue one and a big yellow one that’s terrorizing the entire tank....they have plenty of hiding spaces what else can I do

Pretty new to this I know the two main culprit is one that’s all blue with a bulldog like face and a huge yellow one with all black top fin.with 15 fish I would think the aggression would be two spread out but I have woke up to two dead fish within 2 weeks
Certain fish are too aggressive for a 55 gallon tank and having too many males and too few females can cause a fish to be really aggressive. They want to claim territory and breed.
the blue one that’s terrorizing everyone has spots on its anal fin I think the yellow one does also
Indeed I was just about to get rid of them and get a group of carpintis but they have earned there stay
Yeah but you don't need to get rid of all of them. They are mostly just doing what's according to their nature.
