Tanked
Fish Herder
I was wondering if anybody knew if swordtails have mating rituals? I have 2 males and 1 femle. today the larger of the 2 males would not let the smaller one near the female. very aggresive and has never been this way. afer he chased the other male off he began chasing the female. he would stop, swim backwards (tail first) about half way around the tank and then resumed chasing the female. when ever he did the backwards swimming he made sure the female was watching him. kinda showing off "look what I can do, you want to make some fishy noookie?" or has he just completly lost it ?
