davidb Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 just bought a potters angel, and it has been in my tank for about 2 hours now. It was fine and didn't go hide when I let it out. It is fine with my Clown, the big boss of the tank, but each time it goes near my pixy (Falco) hawkfish, my hawk chases it at high speed around the tank... when I say each time I mean each time. What should I do? try and net one out or will the mirror trick work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasp Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 If it's to the point where the new fish is in danger it's good to give the aggressive fish a holiday in the sump for 2 weeks. But if that can't be done a possible option is to turn the lights out for a couple of days plus pull the curtains so the tank is pretty dark, then bring things back gradually over a few more days.
