Hey guys,
I have 3 Ghosts that are L4/L5 and have been told housing them together in a suitably sized enclosure is safe for this species. I just recently moved them all to a bigger enclosure (12X12X18in) together. There has been no issue for about 4 days now, but I recently witnessed two staring each other down, and "hitting" each other. Kind of like a warning to back off since they were near the other. I separated one of the fighters to a separate enclosure. Plenty of food is being provided. My question is if I should be concerned about cannibalism because of the aggression. I've read on how this is one of the very few species that are communal. Any help would be appreciated!
