My managuence wasn't too happy about its new tankmate.
Wouldnt touch the flowerhorn, but put on a nice display.
Tanks a 125 with 2 oscars (albino is movin' out), the manaquence, a JD (movin' out) and the flowerhorn.

new fish will some times fight with the outher fish in the tank due to the outher fish rule the tank and have people trying to take their ter. if u moved the structure around a lil it would probably be fine
 
Yea Ive seen these fish do that before, sometimes they just don't anyone else to move in!
 
I would try rearangeing the decor so as everybody has to go and claim a new territory. Then you will have less displaying like this and less chance of a fight, and a better chance of keeping the fish together.
 
There hasnt been any aggression since. He was just letting him know the tank is his.
He never even touched him. The frayed fins on the FH were from the petstore.
 
mine did that to my midas when i put him in the jag tank, in the mornong i had a dead jag:cry: both was about the 9 - 10 inch mark:cry: :cry: :cry:
