Sorry you are having troubles.. which malawis do you have?? How is your tank set up?? I have Malawis and they tend to chase each other all the time.. I think its their second nature.. LOL - If you dont have sufficient hiding spaces though, it can cause troubles. maybe try re-arranging your tank to see if it helps...

Ok, so i took them both back unfortunately, because i thought it was sort of mean keeping a fish that will batter each other to death...plus it wasnt nice to watch when they were battering each other
I took them back to the shop.
then drained the tank totally and put it away to make way for Rams again
Just so you know it had 2 malawis, ...the most agressive fish from there!!!....the aractus or something like that, i had a pair :S
