I got a betta at the time I didn’t know about cycling only using water conditioner and i set the tank up and got him the next day. I don’t know how he survived but he’s still going strong to this day! My first real loss was when i got a second bigger tank and i let it cycled and done water tests...

Yh they aren’t doing it constantly and most of the time they are swimming together it was only the one time now they are back swimming together lol and its always the smaller one going up to the big one and starting. The smaller one used to swim with its fins down but now the fins are always...

Exactly the same here i was given bad advice when i was a newbie and my whole tank wiped out but now I’ve done all the research i can for all the fish i have and planning to get. I am now a researchaholic lol

Btw im not a beginner i have been fish keeping for just over 2 years and i am a research freak and need to do as much research i can lol

50 gallon tank and its cycled ammonia 0 nitrite 0 nitrate 20 pH just below 7

Thats one of my 3 Rainbow cichlids lol they swim in 3’s so i called them the 3 Musketeers lol

I haven’t seen any lip locking just some weird swimming side by side patterns and swimming into the others side

I I couldn’t post a video so i was trying to get images the way they were swimming together lol

I’ve had these 2 Electric blue rams for just under a month and they are swimming closely together in a weird pattern, head butting each other and squaring up. I asked for a pair but I'm guessing they are both males. Can someone try and gender these and explain what they are doing. Thankyou
