I just realaized my neon tetras are bulliing the littlest one i turned the lights on i seen 4 were in the plants sleeping and it was like 2 were watching gaurd so he didnt come back over...i think someone even nibbled his eye out =(
 
how many neons are in the tank?

what else do you have in there?
 
never heard of a neon attacking anohter neon.....especially one taking anothers eye!

bettas can be quite aggressive, might be him that's started the fight?
 
I'd be inclined to say it's the betta too. Some bettas are completely placid, others can be quite aggressive!
 
My son has 14 Neons and sometimes the smallest one chases some of the bigger ones around. I've never seen any real hardcore aggression though.................
 
I bought more tetras today I come home from work and someone else is missing a eye ....I have removed the betta now so its only corys tetras and shrimp.
