    Is this the normal behaviour? I only have a couple of such fish in the tank, but one has been bullying the other...

    Yes, if you want to lessen the stress for the weaker one you'll need at least another 3 or 4 of them.

    Bite but dont kill cos of i behavior. Look at the mouth of this fish, u notice that the upper jaw is curve down and bottom jaw curve up. Fishes with this type of mouth will bite each other tail or eat meat. Like what your friend here say, keep in bigger tank or heavy planted tank. Lower down the ph will give this fish the best color.Enjoy keeping
    Treat your fishes like your baby. The sign and symptom is the same but cannot talk.

    where can I find female rosy barbs? Seems like most of them only sell males.
