Platy bullying Silver Dollars

[Kiwilover]

Today I got 3 Silver Dollars, I expected them to be nervous, and when I let them out, my male platy is pushing the silvers around! He won't stop, I'm guessing he sees his reflection. The Silvers are worried enough. What should I do without stressing the Silvers more? Update:I removed the male platy from the tank, he's in a cup with some tank water.

First put the platy back into the tank. He can not live in a cup. What size tank do you have? Silver dollars get large and need schools of at least six. My guess is part of the nervousness is being in a small group.

I have a 50 gallon. What would the Silvers being nervous have to do with the platys being bullies?

The dollars are new and the platy is just checking them out. Turn the tank lights out and leave them together.
