howdy,

have seen this type of aggression in my lake tang tank before - when the fish lock mouths etc and try and bite each other!

But it was for the first time last night that i saw two of my discus doing it. They kept biting each other. The intersting part was that the most dominant discus occasionally came past and separated them and ushured
them back to their repsective corners!

corner one : sankeskin
corner two : marlbro

params fine - temp was 28 - fish have lived happily together for almost a year!

Thoughts??

thats normal behaviour,all to do with the rank of each fish in the tank.
when they grow or pairing up things can change and the whole thing starts all over again.
