So I have a silver aro thats about 12 inches long and he has three tank mates, a large pleco, redtail catfish, and an electric blue african cichlid... So the pleco minds his own business and sucks the tank, the redtail stays at the bottom and doesnt bother anyone and is not a size that is an issue for the aro... But the cichlid is another issue... So iI have noticed that the cichlid will peck on the aro and hit it... Should I get rid of the cichlid or will the aro show his dominance since she is about three times the cichlid's size... just asking if you guys know from experience... I would much rather keep my aro nice and unbeaten up... so let me know what you guys think... I have a great place for the cichlid to go, my friend has a cichlid tank and has been wanting her ever since... Beautiful color... Its just she is aggressive, she already killed my electric yellow cichlid...
 
alright done deal... he goes to his new home tomorrow... my aro did show him whos boss earlier... he was picking on the aro and then out of nowhere the aro full speed swims and hits the cichlid for a loop hahah... so anyways im glad she stood up for herself and she wont have to much longer... thanks guys...
