Re: Are they fighting?

naaaa, I doubt it. neons tend to be quite peaceful. They're probably just spreading out adjusting to the new tank. Oh, and I had serpae tetras that would get playful and chase each other around. But it wasn't bullying, it was just them playing. Unless you see one getting beat up I would just let it go and watch what happens for now.

Re: Are they fighting?

if it is fighting it could be over teritory...nothing i would personaly worry about....it funny if you have to little decor in your tank then theres more teritory fights ...then if you have to much theres not enough room for fighting...but anyways with tetras dont worry
