hey guys. I was wondering, I have a yellow tang, and he is not aggressive in any way to the fish established in my tank, but he seems to be showing some aggression to my leopard (chasing him when after food). This is him trying to show the wrasse he is dominant right? I have watched him for a while and he has not done it often. Has anyone else had this w/their YT? The leopard was introduced sunday, BTW
also, how do I feed him ONLY? ALL the other fish gather around him when I try to feed him, and they take some mysis right away. How do I stop them? I already do feed them first...
If only since Sunday I would give it a little more time. The aggression may cease after a few days. As far as feeding him only, I am not sure that will be possible if he is already in your display tank. Just broadcast some smaller foods like cyclops for instance. I have had good luck getting hard to eat fish eating that.
*I just want to add that in my experience these fish don't take well to being threatened or harassed by other fish... I've tried to add 2 more females for my male and he chasing them non stop for days until they bury and never come back up. I guess its possible HeShe does this cuz he's not terminal and still changing but that has been may problem recently anyway.
