Hi I've read through just about every post and could not fine a similiar situation to mine so .....I bought a pair of cinnamons...I would say identical in size which is maybe 1 1/2"...I can tell them apart because one had less black on the pectoral fins. I'll call this one #1. After a few days I did see #2 submit to #1. #1 decided to host in the xenia and wouldn't let #2 share the xenia so #2 slept in the feather duster. Now 2 weeks go by and there is a role reversal. #2 has now claimed the xenia AND the ricordia and #1's tail is shredded a little. That happened in like 24hrs. #1 is definitely petrified of #2 and the submissive behavior is much more extreme than what I saw when I first got them. Is role reversal common in what I assume is 2 juveniles? Will the tail fin get better?
 
monitor them and watch for aggression. Give iti some time and watch for infection and ich. If this happens QT it and treat. Hopefully they will work it out.
