Question
Hi there
I bought 2 little black moores about 3weeks ago
but one of the fish keeps biting the other one and
its looks pretty bad because the other fish tail is all choped up from him geting bit  up so bad ...is this a faze ?? and is there anything i can do to stop the fish from biting the other one up so much???

Answer
No, its not a faze and they need to be seperated in order for them both to survive. If you dont the one will eventually kill the other. Sometimes fish who are suppose to be able to be put together just dont want to co-habitate. The only thing you can do is seperate them, there is no other option. You could always get a tank divider but that tend to not look as nice. Good luck.
