Hello all on ReefCentral.

I have one question about fishes in my tank. I have 66g tank. I have there pseudocheilinus hexataenia for about 4 months. Yesterday I added pair of pterosynchiropus splendidus. Today, P. hexataenia started to be interested into my new fishes. Swimms near the mandarin fish and then pokes or peck to him. This repeates few times. Mandarin does not react to that at most. Sometimes just swimms to other place. Please, is that normal behavior for pseudocheilinus?

6 lines can be aggressive plus they are competing for the same food

Oh, i see. So this fish must out of the tank. Please, do you have any suggestions or tricks, how to catch this fish? It is terribly fast and starting to be aggressive to other fishes in my tank, like my A. occellaris, Oxycirrhites typus and even with P. hepatus. :sad2:
