Default Mesonauta Festivum

I have 2 MF, one is 4.5" and the other is 2.5". They are in different
tanks. I want to put them together, but teh big one is quite territorial. I
guess adding the small one to the tank where the big one has settle down his
territory is making thing more difficult. The tank is a 25gl, with the 4.5"
MF and a pl*co.
How I can introduce one to the other? I mean, waht would be the best way?
I heard the MF are no so aggressive....but his attack are quite bad....

Sounds like they are both males. In that case, there is no easy way
to make it work. In a larger tank, I would suggest adding several
festivums, but a 25 gallon tank is pretty small for that strategy.
