Hi everyone. So last Wednesday I noticed my clowns acting weird. The male and female were doing this “dance” that was completely normal as I was told by other forum members. Recently I’ve been watching them more and more when I get home from work and they start fighting when the light comes on. The female is showing her dominance by doing the usual slight aggressive bumps and pushes but the male is almost like fighting back. He opens his mouth up to and goes back at her right as she goes at him.
These clowns weren’t paired when I got them but they came from the same batch my lfs got in. I choose the biggest one in the group obviously the female and the next closes fish that was “following” her and was well enough smaller to try and cut back on the aggression in hopes they would already know there roles and not have to be as aggressive towards one and other.
I’m not sure if this is normal or not cause these are my first clowns that weren’t paired together.
Here’s a perfect video of it. The fight then both twitch. I would appreciate some other peoples opinions on this. Thank you.
I’ve attached the original video and the newest one.
