mean fish u had to get rid of?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i am considering getting rid of my blue lobster. ive, twice, seen him grab my bichir senegalas. i also watch him try to creep up on my yellow labs, but they are too fast.
my bichir is an idiot though, the only reason that the blue lobster gets him is because he suffers from, "hey buddy", complex. he practically rests on his claws:screwy:
 
My brother used to have 2 blood parrots,(a bit before he left for college) but they picked on his oscar baby and knocked scales out of my fish. He put up an ad and got a few offers... One was a 180 gallon and one was a 30 with a betta... various others in between those sizes...


... and he sent them to the person with the betta in a 30 gallon... The pair most likely defeated the betta. They might still be alive, might not.



I was going to get rid of my tinfoil barbs because they were picking on other fish and being "tyrants." But the pet store doesn't take orphans and doesn't accept returns, trade ins or anything related... I am glad I couldn't get rid of them. The moors that they used to be with (nub) are now in a different tank. This happened almost 2 years ago.

I never get rid of anything.. if it is a mean fish i give him another home.. here... sometimes they get to live by themselves... but i never part with any of my fish..i respect that some fish are aggressive...and some fish just don't like the tankmates i chose for them.... not their fault... not everyone can get along in tight quarters... :D
 
My First a Aus Native Spangled Perch had him in with 3 Redfin one 3 times the size had them hiding in caves after he had a crazy attack on them. So i put him in the solitary tank till i got my 8 foota then tried to have a new community fish biger an rated more aggresive than him but had to keep to a single tank. think its just one fish of that species that just has a mental problem but im a bit of a softy i have a few fish that i knew i couldn't keep in a community so i have them on there own 9 tanks an counting
