About a month ago I got a younger green terror for my 90 gal and its been chasing mainly my geophagus tapajos but the other fish as well (angelfish, electric blue Acara, rainbow cichlid) and was wondering if I should get dither fish and if so what kind?

So I am currently cycling a 29 gallon tank. I used to, 6-7+ years ago, be very into the hobby with several Malawi/Mbuna tanks. Then I got married, had kids, and sold everything cause life was so busy. Now I am getting back into the hobby and going back to my love of cichlids. And I don't really...

so i picked up a juvenile flowerhorn online and of course i knew the risks of getting a female but this guy looks super colorful and is maybe only 2.5 inches long. Might be too early to tell but "he" fights his own reflection a lot and shows lots of aggression in the tank alone by himself. any...
