Separate tank or a tank partition perhaps. I don't remember ever seeing an agressive ranchu. It is usually the ryukin which cause problems.

possibly the ranchu wants to mate with the other fish, or is 14 cm too small to mate? you could put a tank divider in for a while, so about 1/6 of the tank is confined for that fish... then after a while you could take it out and if it happens again, put him in time out again. i have never tried this, but its just a thought.
