What is a dither fish?

that means a fish that is used to bring out your shy monsters or to level aggression between them

like your fish will chase or attack these fish to gt off aggression instead of attacking your other fish

what would be a good dither fish for my frontosa cause he cuts the other frontosa no slack:screwy:
 
silver dollars or cheap assorted africans
 
Giant danios work good too, or bala sharks.
 
I have been very surprised how well dither fish have been on keeping my African cichlids out and about in the open areas of the tank. (giant danios now and at one time rainbows)
