Once the bully ever since he was acquired, my Humbug damsel had shown a very unique turn about. He would be a defender of bullying that he was once champion to protect newly introduced fish. I first observed this with a Clarkii he saved from being torn to shreds by a spawning percula pair. He would literally get in the way of an attack and stay on his guard in the corner where the Clarkii found refuge. It happened 4 other tines with a purple Firefish, another clarkii, and a yellow tang he protected from a much bigger purple tang.
But alas, having moved him and all my fish into the bigger 180, he's reverted back to being a bully and harasses anyone new.
