Hi bros! my red have kill my newly purchase orino by bitting it to death overnight.. my red is current at ard 20".. add in a 13" pb yesterday and it bite my pb till death.. inside my tank i have 2 IT at ard 10".. but my aro dun seems to disturb them when i add in last few weeks. I saw another pair of pbs also ard 13".. thinking of adding in for a second try.. but worrying tat my red gonna kill them again.. any suggestion or ways i can do to prevent tis from happening?

1) reintroduce of my red.. bag out my red and put in the pbs pair in tank.. then release back my red after awhile?

2) will it be better as im gonna add in 2 pbs instead of only 1?

Anymore suggestion?

add at least 3 PB or best 5 PB to disperse the aggression. to remove 20" aro and put back i think it's too much of a hassle. aro might be stress or worse injure itself while bagging. my 2 cents.

I only saw 2pcs at the moment which is nice.. is it possible to do so with 2 pcs? If i were to add in 3 or 5pcs . Will the killing stop after they get use to?

1 PB die already.. dun risk 2 more. i think 2 too little to spread out the attack. your aro so fierce can kill 1 overnight. too fierce liao.

I have a red that always killing small red hooks about 2-3inches when it is hungry. It will bite them and try to swallow them. Either I feed the red fully or change to much larger size red hooks about 7-9inches.
