My firemouths are being picked on by my green terror. Why does he only seek them out and not the small con's? If you recall I had posted a thread about him being sick. He's much better now but it seems like his mission in life is to pick on my firemouths. Could the tank be too small?
 
the aggression is probably due to the fact that there is not enough territory to go around, so the GT claims most of the tank leaving the smaller/weaker firemouths open to be attacked more.
 
Could also be related to sizes. Maybe the convicts are too small to be considered competition, but the fm are closer to the gt's size?
