royal clown attacking my oscars

[Iffrat]

so have a RCN that has been attacking my oscars for about a week now .. most the time its when he is hungry or during feeding .. just want to know if there is anything to worrie about .. or do you think the O's should hold there own

they have lived together for over 6 months in the same tank .. same set up .. and the tank is clean and going well ..

only thing i can think is to up there feeding a little bit and see if that takes care of the problem .. but other then that .. i dont know

Try bumping up the feeding and see how the aggression goes. How big are they?

maybe hunger?

 

[zerojquan85]

how big is the tank? maybe space is the issue.... ?

its a 150 gal tank .. and the RCK has its own cave that it stays in .. the O's are swimming into it . then the knife attacks them and chases them around the tank

my RCK is territorial for his cave, if the bichirs swim near it he chases them off. I think its normal for them to defend their house. But extra food may help.
