Fluffeh Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Ever since my clownfish lost his partner, he's pretty much ran every other fish out of my tank. I've tried to add a fish but he would attack. So now he's the only fish, but now he is abusing one of my corals (duncan) as he grabs onto the tentacles and tries to yank it. any suggestions on what I should do? I really don't want to get rid of him as he has been with us for about 6 years. Link to comment
ndrobey Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 If you put the fish into a separate tank and change the rockscape quite a bit, introduce other fish into the changed tank, then add this fish back, it could break up his behavior. Link to comment
yomon347 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 My clown loves trying to eat duncan tentacles. I tried moving the coral and changing the scape with no luck. Link to comment
Bingo1213 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I vote for trying to change the aquascape. I have had clowns with my duncans with no problems at all. Although I do always try and provide clowns with a nice bubble tip, so that might help! Link to comment
LongDoggy Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Well, I guess that means you need another tank. Lol All kidding aside, a drastic scape change should help. My female is super territorial and I've been able to quash that by rearranging the rock. I'm guessing it was your male that died? Link to comment
