I have 3 orinos around 5 inches. They are bullies in the grow out tank. So I assumed they will be fine with a 8 inch wild mono. Was I wrong. The mono keeps snapping at them like they are feeders. Not the kind of aggression pbass normally has with each other. I have had the wild mono with a 10 inch farmed and they occasionally flared at each other like friendly fighting. What do I do? should I wait till the orinos get bigger? If so how big until I put them back? By the way my wife got pissed and took them out while I was at work cause orinos are her fave.
 
If you can take them out, take them out. If not, then target feed the smaller ones more. They will eventual build up their strength/size and come around.
 
My wife took them out while I was at work. I thought orinos are suppose to be mean? Especially in a pack.
