HELP Please

Hey Everyone,

I just introduced a Bamboo Shark into my tank and my blue tang keeps nipping at it and it won't leave it alone.

Can someone please explain to me why and what can i do to stop this from happening?

Thanks!

I suspect the tang feels like another fish is encroaching on his territory. Just curious, How big is your tank?

Do you have a cave for the bamboo shark?they like to hide during the day and might be trying to steal yours tangs home and that's why he's picking on him.my tangs and shark where bumping heads until I made a few large caves

Great idea!

In a pinch, a length of PVC makes a good cave, as long as it's wide enough to accommodate the fish.
