New Butterfly vs. Sailfin tang.. HELP!

[pktech]

Hey everyone - do you think "changing" rock work around would possibly ease tensions between my new Collare & sailfin tang.

I never understood why or the use of this "scalpel" is until now ... needless to say I'm a little bummed ... they're both equal in size if that matters much ...

Thanks in advance!

If you could remove the tang from the tank for ~ 1 month, it should make a difference. If not, a large mirror taped ot the front of the tank may help distract it some. I do not think changing the rock alone will do a thing. It is a lot of work for probably low yield results IMO

thanks for the reponse ...

I moved the rock around to a new configuration. The harrassment is not as bad so far, but the sailfin is still zeroed in on the collare. The collare seems to be trying to establish it's own place in the tank as well.

They're both attacking the nori I put in there.
