Thanks jag for your great explanation!! i get it now!Im going to try and answer this best I can since im new also....
Dither fish is a calm non aggressive fish that is also not skittish, its main use is to show more skittish fish that may hide all day that there is no threat since the dither is not hidding.
Target fish are fast moving fish that takes aggression and attacks, using larger numbers of target fish spreads the aggression out so no one fish is picked on, and it draws aggression away from say a lady fish not ready to bread, you can use aggressive fish as target fish but this will cause fighting ripped fins and death (i want my male jag to be the show point of the tank ripped fins would take away from that)
Please feel free to correct any and everything as I just myself started learning about dither/target fish
