Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / May 2006aggressive goldfish
I've got 2 goldfish in a 15 litre tank, and I've noticed that there's a lot of aggression from the older of the 2 goldfish.. I had to buy a new goldfish, after the old one mysteriously died ( well it was a goldfish we won at the local fair..) and since then the older of the 2 seems to spend most of his time chasing the new one around the tank, the situation seems to get worse during feedtime. Should I pair each of them into a separate tank? Graham Gold fish can become very agressive, so much that they will often times attack the owner when they attempt to clean the tank. I have numerous bit marks on my hands and arms. Koi are a lot worse. In the USA they only sell new golkd fish too, as all others are considered used and do not bring much, in money so we throw them suckers nthe compst heap Tha one doing the chasing is just after so tail and is horny as all get go, looking for a bit of fish pussy. You can;t balme a fish can yu ljust look at humans and other animals how they act, Take Carol Gulley aka KoiLo for example.......you would be surprised how she acts........Personally I would flush thjem suckers and by some Neon Tetras as they are much peacefull and don't sh.t and eat a lot.

Graham ====================================== The new one may be a female and this is normal behavior for this time of the year. The males aggressively pursue the females to breed with them.
