I have two hand sized red headed severums in a 75g. I think they are about two years old and both males. They are very close to the same size but the larger of the two has been chasing the other for a few months now. It isn't violent, but the smaller hides behind a chunk of driftwood most of the time. He sometimes has a small injury from bumping into stuff while fleeing.
What I can't decide, is if I need to separate them or not. As of now, I don't see an immediate danger, but will this progressively get more serious? Is this likely because they are both male?
Other tank mates are a female convict, a keyhole, and a small, maybe 3" pleco. No one else is bothered. In fact, the bigger sev is buddies with the keyhole.
