Regular Member mardaokansi Posted July 18, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted July 18, 2008 I have some feeder fish (rosie reds) for my turtle, however, my turtle has kept a few alive and now they are HUGE. there is one "bully" who seems to run the show and chases the others tails. then the turtle ate him and a new chief emerged. same thing happens and a new bully appears. now my danios are doing the same thing. I have 4. I one will chase one fish and the other fish will chase the last fish. why is that? are they territorial and should I keep them apart? I don't want my fish to be stressed (although a turtle probably does that already) and I don't want them to get nipped (if that's possible). they all live together in a 55 gal tank, so there's more then enough room for the fish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Kets Posted July 18, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted July 18, 2008 It's probably normal, since danios are a schooling fish and develop a bit of a heiarchy. Or they could be breeding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
