I have 3 discus and one of them is being a bully. I’ve tried rearranging the tank and adding more plants...... that has not worked! All 3 are juvenile. Someone at the place I got them from suggested that I add a few more. Right now they are in a 30 gallon tank. I do plan on getting a bigger tank, but it won’t be for at least a few months.
I do notice when the lights are off things calm down a bit and they all seem to sleep close to each other. But turn on the lights and the bullying starts all over again. The bully keeps the more timid one up in a corner. My third one seems to hold its own but is also getting bullied. I am more worried about the more timid one getting too stressed out!
The blue one is the bully. The red one in the middle is the one getting stressed out! And is the one I’m worried about.
If anyone has any suggestions on what I should do with this bullying problem, I would very much appreciate it!
TIA
