help my fish are fighting!!!

[troy989]

my yellow watchman goby and my clownfish are fighting a litle bit my goby's right fin is skiny and red what should i do ?!?!?!

Rearrange the tank. When my fish first started fighting, I put a mirror on the outside of my tank (facing in). The fish preferred to fight with their own kind instead of each other. Try that and see if it works.

Yell at them

You might have to find a way to seperate them till the other one gets better. My 4yr old clown was hurt a few weeks ago and I took him out the display tank and placed him in the sump for a week till he got better and then put him back in the tank

you can put him in one of those breeder tanks and hang it on the inside of your tank until he gets better. They cost around $10.
