Sorry Deanne - Somehow I thought we were still talking about the risk of
Myco. If you intend adding more ranbows then I suggest you quarantine them
in the 3rd tank for a fortnight before adding and add at least 3 more.
Ideally they should be at least the size of the existing smaller fish so
that the bullying is spread around better. If you add females you may see an
increase in aggression from the dominant male to try to get the all for
himself. Or you may find the smaller male becomes even more suppressed.
Sometimes the addition of 5 or 6 fish will induce schooling and less
aggression.
