As mentioned, the personality of fishes varies greatly. I have a coral beauty that is a pussy. The flame angel on the other hand...

I'll keep trying the pipe on and off further. I guess i got the only bully cb. Lol maybe i should find her a bigger bully lol

Seems to calm everyone, prolly cuz they are too engorged to really act out lol. I did try the nori on a pipe trick. Seems though only my skunk, snails, and conch seem at all interested in it lol

Also just put the mirror up so far she seems to avoid it all togther so i put it in the clowns fav spot. Lol now if i can only get my clowns to move.

Try a magnetic veggie clip I find the fish like it better off the bottom, seems to work well for me.

I tried the veggie clip with a suction cup. It waved around too much for them. Seems everyone is afraid of waving plant food but not each other lol

Lol, no my CB is the boss of his tank as well. He's in with a Flame Angel, Falco Hawk and a yellow tang. Everyone steers clear of him when he gets belligerent

I found the aggression subsided with time as they learn the pecking order, but rearranging the rock, dimming the lights and the mirror trick all help to reduce the fighting initially.

I am having similar issues, my elibi likes to beat up my FIREFISH...can't win.

That's why I use a magnetic clip they don't wave around at all.
