Question on a second leopard wrasse.

[Maxxingout]

I have a istablelished blue star leopard wrasse in my 75g. I got a new (smaller) leopard and the blue star is attacking it. Its only been in the dt for 2 days now but gets chased back into the sand every time it pops out. Should I put the blue star in the sump for a few days?

...Or use a social acclimation box for a few days

Well after 4 days I decided I needed to pull the blue star out of the DT and put him in the fuge. He was not just chasing or fin nipping the Vermiculite Wrasse, he was spear diving her. I don't think a accl box would work, not from the fury that I've seen. I hated doing it but I think it's the only chance she'll have. The blue star male kind of went after the pearl wrasse but with much less enthusiasm.
