Firstly: 55 gallon with a Rena XP2, and 2 Aquaclear 20's. Been doing 2 weekly 25% water changes, all parameters are normal. Tank currently houses 1 5" Rainbow Shark, a 1" BN Pleco, and a 3" Male Silver Saum.

Now, I recently added Pimelodus Blochii to the mix. My rainbow shark, who was once the most timid fish in my tank, has been constantly chasing and nipping the blochii. It's so bad that the poor Pim has been hiding all day long.

Now I was wondering what my options are for solving this problem. Should I remove one of the fish? Or should I add another blochii? Any suggestions?
 
i would just take the aggressor out of the tank.Like if you have any other trouble with aggression...take the aggressor out of the tank
