Should they all be added at once?

Hi i am a new pbass keeper In the last week or so, I have purchased 6 little pbass, 2 to 2.5 inches. I added them to the tank on 4 different days; 2 on the first day, then one by one on other days. I have noticed that the 2 that i added first kind of dominate the tank and get the most to eat. I was wondering if it was a mistake adding them at different times. And if it was, is there anything i can do to reverse this mistake? Thanks for the help.

You could have added them all together. It's natural for them to set heirchy from the time they hit the water and this will alway's be the case so I wouldn't worry about it. Welcome to the Cichla sickness!

No problem. What sp did you get or what were they labled in the LFS?
