Bolivian Ram Aggression...

[tj200]

Hey
I've got 2 bolivian rams in a 250L and recently they seem to be a big agressive with each other (fine with other fish). They sort of chase each other and bump mouths (looks a bit like they're kissing, very roughly!).
Is this a problem? and is there anything I can do cos i really dont want them to be stressed or anything.

mine have been doing this for 6 months(headbutting and liplocking), if it gets to a point where they're actually beating each other up i'd seperate them, otherwise i wouldn't worry.

lip-locking is part of a ram's daily routine. as long as both fish are healthey and get food it's not really a problem. I'm pretty the tank is large enough for the weaker one to escape
