Sheesh nigel really let me down. All the moving polys around threw the tank out of whack. Everyone is acting crazy nigel was actially hanging out with the other polys (punk !!!!!!)

Ansorgii who is normally easy peasy was pushing around others.

Faranah endli nipped the BV
BV nipped at the congi
Sp delaware nipped the faranah endli
Sheeeesh its like polys gone wild in there lol

Argh! I hate aggression. Hopefully it will all settle down. The PBB screwed it all up. Kinda goes to show that sometimes the answer isn't always to just "add more polys." Sometimes there's just a jerk fish, and unless you have the right combo of others with it, it might have to live a solo life. Not many people have enough polys and tanks to figure all of that out.

Once everything settles from the poly shuffle scuffles are you going to try Kruger back in the big tank one more time to see what happens?

Yeah me to. Occasional fin nipping is normal and i think with low numbers adding can help but not with this guy. I agree with you though at some point enough is enough cant keep adding polys, its not always the cure all.

Im hoping i can work the hellraiser back into the poly comm becauae it looks like it will settle into being a really good looking poly.20170524_074943.jpg 20170524_074235.jpg
Right now im doubtful it will work out. Hes similar to the aggression i had with the dabola endli. Very territorial. I would say at this point hes worse. The endli was a s.o.b to all polys but never messed with other fish. This guy even bit hulk.

I thought i saw him snap at him out of the corner of my eye but wasnt sure so i dropped some pellets right infornt of the pbb and hulk didnt immediately go for them so i knew something was up. Eventually he did and sure enough little pbb bit him. Im not too worried about these two as the cichlid will and has been avoiding the pbb's little corner but i assume since the polys have bad vision or dont mind getting attacked they dont honor territories as well.

I'll see how it goes but wont be introducing him bacl to the 300 for some time. Total pain in the ass

We habe another member from south africa as well Hendre Hendre who also has a tough time getting polys. He could probably put you in contact with someone who has wc sens

Those polys are going wild! Seems like they are trying to figure out a new pecking order. Maybe Nigel is throwing his bad boy days behind him and hanging up his leather jacket. Until there is a much smaller poly.....

It is funny(but frustrating) that each of them is picking on a different one. Can't believe it about the ansorgii or my baby sp.delaware. Or the congi or the faranah endli for that matter:.... isn't she a log usually?

BV the bull is out for toes.

Can't believe the little PBb bit hulk. Grrrrrr!!!!

PBB bit hulk even? Sheesh!

Well, like you said, that's bettter than other polys since they like occupying different levels of the tank, and cichlids aren't strangers to territorial aggression.

I feel like you guys have mentioned polys that have settled with age/time so I hope that's what happens with this guy.
