I am very surprised in a 200G that he is such a bully. He has so much room to himself yet he still insists on keeping the Tusk hidden away back behind the rocks like in the picture.

Its getting kind of sad that to see my Tusk, I have to go to that end of the tank and watch him coward behind the rocks

He used to be such an active fish! I actually wish he use those massive teeth of him and 'push' back. He is smaller than the hippo but I have a feeling hes much stronger. I just don't think he understands his strength. I have watched him rip prawns in half and smash hermit crab shells on rocks with force.

Now that I think of it, the hippo would get his @ss kicked if the tusk would just fight back! I don't want the Hippo to get hurt but I really wish he would learn a lesson.

I am getting a very large Sailfin on the Weekend from a friend--much larger than the Hippo and I hope the Sailfin can maybe distract the Hippo. This Sailfin is nice and peaceful but I am thinking maybe just its presence will be enough to put some order back in the tank...or it will completely backfire. If thats the case then the Hippo goes.

I hope you're right. My Sailfin is very peaceful. Whenever a new fish is introduced, he postures a few times and that's it. Then they are buddies.
