What To Do With A Bully Guppie...?

[Ft fisher]

As i've been sat watching my tank i've noticed one of my guppies keeps chasing my mollies around and sort of head-butting them, only the bigger male of the mollies bite him back and he goes away, but still comes back for more! What would you recommend i do? Take the guppie out of the tank with the mollies?

I am having the same problem, except the molly is the bully towards the rest of the fish!!

how many guppys and mollies are in the tank?

also what else is in there?

 

[Ft fisher]

There are
5 guppies
3 Mollies
3 Cherry barb
4 shrimp

 

[mattlee]

are they mixed sex guppies and mollies?

 

[Ft fisher]

guppies are all male, the mollies are 1 male and 2 females.

you might just have a frisky guppy trying it on with the molly.....

i once had a platy that tried this with a different species of fish
