Jazzy is biting Aggie! OUCH!

Attachments :OUCH.jpgAgate & Jasper.jpgGreetings Jonathan & Group,Perhaps you remember me; My name is Colleen & when I first got Jazzy, you gave me all kinds of pointers. 9 months later, we got Aggie. I kept them separate until he was almost as big as she. For over a year now, they have been living peacefully in a 55 gal tank.Lately, for the past two weeks or so, Jazzy has been very aggressive toward Agate. She actually bit a white mark into his shell! And now, she won’t leave the white mark alone & it’s gotten bigger & deeper into his poor back.I dunno if his friendliness toward her has gotten her irritated or perhaps preggers {making her grumpy} or what, but it’s driving me nuts. I don’t know what to do. I’m here in Thousand Oaks, so we are in the same time zone {relatively close, I would imagine}… Not sure if you would be willing to give me a call, but I can provide my number if you are willing.I’ve attached two pictures so you can see the size difference between them & so you can see his poor back. I’m really at a loss as to what to do. Any advice or assistance provided would be super greatly appreciated!!Thanx to all,Colleen

Thanx for your reply, Lisa. And yes, I did put Aggie into a smaller tank so that he can heal. I have no idea why Jazzy has suddenly become aggressive towards him. It’s so strange but now that she has a spot to dig into, it’s just gotten worse.So there is nothing I need to do for his ouchie? I really hope we don’t need to get a different female; we’ve had her since she was about the size of a quarter & then got Aggie 9 months later.Anyways, thanx again for your quick reply; it’s surely appreciated.Be well & well blessed,Colleen
