I've had my Blood Parrot for two weeks and he is in a 75 gallon tank with one Snakeskin Guarami, 2 5" Tinfoil Barbs, 2 Rosy Barbs, 2 Australian Rainbows, 2 Golden Giant Danios, 3 Congo Tetras & 2 Kribs. Over the past couple of days the Blood Parrot had been slamming the Snakeskin Guarami. The Guarami is almost 8" and more that twice the size of the Blood Parrot. He leaves all the other fish alone, only slams the Guarami. Is this normal behavior, will it subside or will I need to remove the Blood Parrot? Don't know what to do, give it time or remove him. I don't want to stress the Guarami to the point of him getting ill.
Thanks for any help or suggestions

Parrots are aggressive fish as it is. He may beat that gourami to death.

I agree, get that parrot out asap. Something about the gourami he doesn't like and he won't stop until one of em is dead, then he might start in on a new one.
