Blood Parrot Behavior?

I recently bought 2 Blood Parrots to add into my 55 gallon tank. There where fine at first, Now the Bigger one just chases the smaller one into hidding when ever he comes out same with other fish. Is he just a bully?

Tank has 1 Angelfish, 2 Kissing fish and 2 Blood Parrots if that helps any.

Your tank is overstocked, and it's possible that that is stressing out the fish. Additionally, it could be a hierarchy thing that may not get better in their current situation.

I'm going to rehome my one BP that is chasing everyone. Possibly one Kissing fish, With doing that would I have enough room for another Small BP?

No. A 55 gal is really only suitable for a single BP with other fish, and a pair would be stretching it. If you did a pair, I would remove the angel and both kissing gouramis.

I would rehome both kissing gouramis anyway. A 55 gal isn't big enough for them.

The gouramis where a gift from mother. We didn't plan on having them so iv been doing some research and seen how big they get so where going to rehome both.
