I have and issue with my 60g Malawi tank the hap will not let the rest of the fish in the tank swim into the bottom making the rest of the fish hang on top of the tank! My issue is the rest of the fish are pecking at each other since there in confined corters on top off the tank
is this normal behavior? All fish in the tank are males

Your best bet at this time, is remove him from the tank for a couple of days and re-arange all your ornaments and/or artificial plants the entire tank, give your fish at least 3 days in their new enviroment and return your other male and see how he behaves, ps do not maintain the same type of arrangement that your hap likes witch is what you have right now or he will posibly return to the same behavior, Hapacromis has gone crazy  772341

Sounds like you have dominate male roaming the tank. He will keep everyone in there spot. What is you stock list on this tank? Are they chasing each other or are they really nipping, tearing fins and scales off?
