So I have a blue dot sleeper go by and as you probably know by now he is not the most friendly. He attacked my snowflake clown on a regular basis, bites at my corals, grabs my little hermits and swims around until he has found a place he wants to spit them out. And general is just always in barfight mode.

Is this normal or is he just a d###?

Also what should I do to stop this behavior?

I have had gobies be assholes in tanks that weren't large enough because they claimed all of the territory as theirs. They defend their caves/rocks, or if the tank has a small footprint, everything.]

That makes sense, I was kinda feeling that might be the issue because he just seems so angry all the time And is running around throwing a temper tantrum.

I was honestly hoping that wasn't the case though because it is the first fish we got and my wife's favorite.

You could try rearranging the rockwork/scape, sometimes that works for the "I was here first and this is mine!" mentality.
