What do i do with a fish bully? The bully is a zebra danio. He chases all the fish that are in the tank with him, all the fishes tails are all biten up, he even bullys around my baby angel fish and my male fancy guppy that i got yesterday. Here is what i have in the tank so far, 1 male fancy guppy, 2 baby angelfish, 1 female guppy, and 1 zebra danio. Should i put him in a 5 gallon tank for now? Or should i go to the pet store and sell him or what?
 
get a proper shoal of zebra danios if your tank has hte space.
 
my friend had a zebra danio problem too. he fed him to his crayfish
LOL. Any other idea on what to do with him? I called up the store that i got him from and asked if i can trade him in for a nother diff fish or get my money back they said NO. :mad2:
 
Grrrr.......sounds like they don't care about their customers OR the fish. They could have offered simply to take the fish off your hands!
 
I thought we told you not to keep 2 angelfish in a 10 gallon? What's the point of all of your questions if you end up doing what you would have done anyway?
 
as for the danio, return him to the pet shop. danios are active fish and already cramped in your tank. that's probably why he's pissed off and nippy. a 5 gal is an even worse idea. go return him or just kill him.
 
I told you that im trying to set up my 30 gallon tank ASAP. Dos anyone want him? You pay for shipping. I dont want to kill him. If no one wants him, ill put him in my 90 gallon pond with the gold fish and the plants.
