What do I do? Jellybean chasing convicts?

lovemyfroggies · February 1st, 2008

I went to the pet store today and picked out two pink convicts. In one of my tanks I have one pink jellybean fish. He is by himself. I put the two convicts with the jellybean. The jellybean fish has been chasing both of them non-stop since this evening. What should I do? Does anyone have any advice?

When you say a Jellybean fish, do you mean a parrot fish? I know that they come up with a lot of fancy names for them depending on the colors. How big is your tank? Do you have a lot of hiding spots for them?

Nope they are like albino convicts, really cute. Rearrange the tank or Add extra hiding spaces until the jelly bean gets use to it's new tank mates. Cichlids are chasers...so don't stress out about it too much. It's a normal thing.

Yes I think I'll rearange their hiding spots. Thanks!
