I'm new to salt water and had a tank going pretty well until I introduced a new damsel. I have had two damsels in a 29 gal that have gotten along great. I'm almost at the end of cycling and saw a new damsel I liked. I added him while I added some more live rock and rearranged the whole tank. I thought this would prevent territorial behaivor but one damsel, that has been in the tank a couple of weeks, has scared the new one into a corner within a few hours and seems to have no plans of letting him be. My vast experience with territorial cichlids leads me to believe this new fish isn't going to last long. What do I do?
Do I part with the new damsel, which I feel is sure to die, or do I seperate the aggressive one, which may bother the new fish I plan to introduce later.
I appreciate any opinions.
Thanks,
Chris
