Jayba Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 What is the entire stock list in the tank? The cover on your intake? Any bodies in the area around the tank, or behind the tank carpet surfing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayba Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I wish I knew the fish better, nothing strikes me as being mean. Hopefully someone with a better community fish familiarity can help. Sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWater Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Silver tips are aggresive in my experience and will keep chasing until they kill off your other fish one by one. Also, I have found that chinese or siamese algea eaters become aggresive as they get larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunl Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 It can also depend on how you feed your fish. I like my cichlids mean and lean. Meaning that a full 4" red zebra might be swimming around when I leave to teach in the morning, and by the late afternoon when I come back the others are dragging the skull around attached to a mostly picked clean skeleton. So bodies can disappear quite quickly, depending on the appetites and stocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
