Is it true a male Damsel will twitch to attract females?
My fish has been in tank 15 days. Was in a medicated QT at the LFS (extremely reliable LFS- best you can get). No manifest disease in any fish in my tank. This Starki is aggressive, out and about, and eats well. He does flash, but it's very limited and typically I worry he's gonna scratch his eyes (not flashing his body).
His aggression has landed him in my sump (AKA "Haides") until I get my new 20 gallon long FOLWR spun up (a few more days). There's an awful lot of reflection in the sump judging by his swimming behavior. If it's true about the twitching, my guess is he's started twitching in the sump because he's twitching at his reflection.
I have no idea if this fish is even a male but it would all make sense, including his coloration, which is very saturated. He looks like a painted swedish team mascot, partly why I'm keeping/rehoming him, love this stunning fish.
