    I have 5 fish in a grow on and I've noticed a couple of shiros go face to face and pecking at each others mouth.

    Seems to be aggressive behaviour, although has reduced some what since I added more fish.

    I'm hoping that once they go in the pond, this behaviour will go as I can imagine it causes stress.

    i'd imagine it's a pecking order thing,
    i've got a ginrin kohaku and ochiba that are similar in size occasionally go mouth to mouth over food...
    and sometimes the larger ochiba chases the new smaller showa round the pond if he barges infront of him to grab a mouthful of food...
