yea i've heard of the mirror one and apparently dithers work as well, if that does work try dropping him on his head from about 2 metres in the air 
(j/k seriously dont try that one)
(j/k seriously dont try that one)ok, i tried the head drop... wait... is that the part you were jokin about
no not really, so should i just leave a mirror up and let him go at it till he gets bored/tired?what kind of dithers would recomend? ive been told to gt a school of silver dollars, but im not really a fan. its in with a pair of albino tiger oscars, a small FH and a monster pleco, but the pleco and O's are goin to an indoor pond soon so the RD and FH can hash it out in the 220 when the FH gets of size.

I personally dont like the mirrior. It stressed my fish out and made it attack my oscar in the tank
well now its just the RD, a FH, and a raphael cat in a 220 so im not worried about the aggression to the oscars. the RD takes pretty kindly to the FH thuogh
