Yes - they're pulling it off him before it has a chance to come out.....   There's plenty of room in the tank by the way which is 30g with 2 male and 4 female guppies - 3 skunk corys and the plec.  The tank's also planted with plenty of hiding places....   The plec doesn't seem bothered but if I...
