Recently I bought 2 green chromides (within the last few months), and one of them has taken it upon himself to beat up the other. Which was ok, since I seperated them early, and have since nursed the injured one back to health. Since then, I've added it back to the tank, and even though it is fit and able, and the other chromide no longer chases it, he remains a black colour, and hides at the back of the tank all day.
I'm at 1.005 sg, nitrates around 20, the others at nil. The tank mates are a figure 8 puffer, a pair of oligolepis acutipennis (Turns out my ID was correct, and they're breeding, but thats for another thread...), and the 2 chromides.
Any ideas on how to get the introverted chromide to come out? I've rearranged the tank.
Also, the aggressor is growing so fast I can barely believe it. He's gone from half the size of the archer, to bigger than the arch in less than a couple of months.
