Now my 2 percs are fighting over the anemone

[krypton74]

I am hoping after reading all these posts that my fals percs are just establishing a dominant one, but these guys have been friends for 4 years!! Now all the sudden I add a BTA and they are fighting over it! One is nipping at the other whenever it comes by the anemone. What is the deal? I hope it stops soon, the little booger....

How are they doing ? They make up and get along ?

Before my tank had ich, the small maroon one was happy with a med size anemone (brown short tentacle).
As of today, in the quarantine tank, the small one is happy with a new much bigger maroon. They will be in the quarantine tank for another 5 weeks.
In the display tank, still the same brown short and now just added another large BTA.
In 5 weeks, how should I add the 2 friendly maroon the tank with 2 anemones without having the same problem?
Thanks so much

They are still nipping at each other. The anemone is big enough for both to swim in, but the dominant one still nips and charges the other one. It has been a little over a week. I'll keep updating!
