Well my male notatus is bothering my other male severum they are around the same size do you think it will ever stop?

Also my Notatus still has the whit dot in the middle of his eye, will it ever go away?
I have been melafixing him for almost a week already and nothing

Unlikely. Is it bad?

Take a look from the side or top - is it on the clear membrane or actually in the eye?

I think its on the clear membrane from the image I posted it looks like it on the aqueous humor but in the cornea

Not that bad I guess, he just just chases him around il try to take a video of it tomorrow

most of it went away overnight, but there's a little bit left that took a few days. It didn't seem to be bothering the fish tho. If yours is chasing other fish around it can't be too bad :).
 
I purchased two male severum and added them to a 180 gal community tank. One chased the other relentlessly. So I put the non dominant one in a 75 gal for several months. After rearranging the 180 gal and adding other fish I decided to reintroduce the non dominant severum. The chasing started again immediately, so the non dominant went back to the 75 gal to live with the angels.

Each fish is different, but my dominant male severum is mean as hell. He even tied up with a new jag several times until the jag was moved to another tank. Juvenile jag of course.
 
I speperated my two male Rotkiles, the chasing was constant. The dominant male would not stop, after a coulpe weeks of that crap I just said "a fanaballa" put'em in differant tanks and forget about it. It was getting on my nerves to the point one of them was going to be sleeping with the fishes. You know what I mean?;)
 
the white spot could possibly be a parasite.
