Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / March 2005nipping oranda
I've got an Oranda that likes to nip at other goldfish. Is it normal behavior? I don't think it is trying to breed. It just loves to bother the other goldfish I think you just have a bully fish. Some methods that have worked in the past for me is to take the bully out of the tank for about a week and put him in his own tank then re-add him to the mail tank. Another method that i heard about some people doing is to use a stick or net and "bully" the bully fish with it while he is bullying another fish- he loses his "bully status" after this because you are the bigger bully to him..... Worth a try Just smack him on the nose with a rolled up newspaper when he mis-behaves. lol >I think you just have a bully fish.
