Havin a lazy Sunday afternoon watching my fish. There's a definate hierarcy (spelling) going on.

The firemouths chase the Green Terrors
The Green Terrors chase the Tiger Barbs
The Tigers are too busy chasing each other

And if the Common Plec gets the arse on he chases everybody :lol:

Nothing hassles the Clown though, it must be his calming persona.

Who's the boss in your tank?

Ash
 
the big male platy chaces everything and the guppies mate with everything in one tank!
the oscars chace eachother and the parrots and the sevrums and the plec in the other!
and the betta chaces his reflection in his 1gal
 
My male platys get on my nerves, for sticking in groups and chasing the other platys away.
 
Common Pleco has the run of the one tank :lol: Followed by the Zipper Loaches.
 
My tanks only have swordtails and corys in them. They all get along, ocassionally a couple of the male swordies chase each other but my oldest female usually puts an end to that before it gets out of hand. All in all my tanks are pretty peacefull.
 
WEll, when I was doing musical tanks earlier, I put one of my bettas in with the cories. He went mad and started flaring all over the place.
 
my green severum chases the gold. and 2gether they chase the barbs.
my bristlenose chases every1 lol. he is like the peace keeper and when he has had enuff he makes an appearance n sends every1 2 their own corner
 
In my 20 gallon my angel does the chasing, but he only does it if a fish gets in his way

in my 38 gallon I have a baby jack dempsey and a bristlenose pleco, they just stick to their own business ;)
 
In my hex tank the angel chases the guppies

My baby sajica chases the otos in her 6g

Male sajica chases and head-butts every other fish in his tank

90g The common plec rules ok but the frontosa chases the clown loaches when they try to pinch his cave, the zebra cich chases the frontosa (twice his size) and the silver shark chases the zebra cich (I thought silver sharks were peaceful).
 
Glolite you have some funny fish head butting and cave nicking fish,lol :lol:
 
In my main tank, everybody gets on well although nobody comes between my big plec and its algae wafers...well excep the corys in which there is an on going battle over the algae wafers.
The plec will suck on the wafer while the corys try to nibble at it and eat it all before the plec drags it back to his cave, although they only do that when the plec is trying to eat it and not when he leaves the wafer alone, which is why i figured the corys were just doing it to annoy him.
In the 50gal guppy tank, everybody gets on realy well.
The only other tank i have is a 10gal fry tank.
 
Pleco normally rules the roost, but when the angels had fry they chased everyone away from "their" corner. Both the male and female were super protective. Now that the fry are gone, order has returned and everyone is getting along.

Occasionally one of the balas bumrush the school of Pristellas, for fun I think since they are not fighting over food or anything. They dart through the school real fast, not snapping or looking to hit any of the tetras, just to scatter them. Weirdos. -_-

Lola, my Blue Lobster will kill, thrash, eat anything she's ever been in a tank with, except LUCKY, the last Minnow, been 2 weeks now.
 
Hahaha that would have to be black widows..greedy little guys and i have had them like for ever.. i have had them for 3 years now...longest living fish i have ever had. The same 4
