I just got a 6" Aro and my 7" pbass doesn't seem to like him. Every time my Aro gets near the pbass he will kinda attack him. But the Aro doesn't seem afraid and doesn't run off. Is this normal? I don't have another tank to separate them.
 
Crap, I just checked and my Aro has two gashes near the head and one scale looks like it is half off! What should I do? I don't have a divider. I do have an extra 10 gallon but I can't do that long term. Will a bit of punishment in the 10g for a day work?
 
not sure what kind of answer your are looking for, if its "the pbass will get over it" well its not. You should return the aro or sell the pbass
 
I'd remove the bass asap into the 10 gallon for the night. I would not try to put them back together until the aro has put o a few inches.
 
Chaitika, it was nice meeting you today. I hope some day I can take pictures as nice as you but if I can just have half the fishes in your tank I'd be happy.

How long can I keep him in the 10g? He won't be able to swim at all.
