Hello Friends! I need some help with my 3 Peacock Gudgeons (1M, 2F, all juveniles) that I recently bought. These little guys are gorgeous but they are absolute terrorists in my 20g fully planted, fully cycled tank. They're picking on my male betta so bad he's hiding and they even pick on my Otocinclus catfish. Nobody is safe. I lovingly refer to them as my terrorist fish. I had to move them out of my 20g and into their own 10g. I'm surprised by their behavior because they're supposed to be "peaceful community fish". Now the 10g will only be for them. I wanted to put some cleaner fish with them, but they're so freaking mean that I don't think that I can put anyone in there. Anyone else have this experience? What should I do? Would Nerite snails or Shrimp be better? I feel like if they can't get along with Otocinclus, some of the most peaceful fish I've ever had the pleasure of parenting, they won't get along with anyone. Thoughts? Have you ever experienced aggressive behavior from your Peacocks? In case you're wondering about the parameters of the 20g: Temp: 77 to 77.5 F; PH 7.4 - stable; Ammonia 0; Nitrites 0; Nitrates 0; GH 60ppm; KH 20ppm; TDS 381. ❤️Rosi -
I came across this study from Osaka Metropolitan University today and I thought this would be the perfect place to share it. https://www.omu.ac.jp/en/info/research-news/entry-23252.html
