I have three and they used to wiggle next to eachother for lack of a better word. I know its a form of competing for hierarchy, but now, after a few months one just chases the other two all over the tank. Is this because I don't have a large enough school of them?

- odd part: I net the aggressive one to calm him down/let others take his territory and when I release him he gets chased by a new alpha fish. I kept doing this with all three of them at different times (they all ended up being really aggressive) so now I'm trying to put them all in a net at the same time instead of replanting the tank to re-establish territory. Good or bad idea?
