Locking Lips

[leon1davies]

What does it mean when 2 kribensis are locking lips? i no one is def a female and im quite unsure now of the sex of the other? it was sold to me as a female but it has signs of being a male. Also after the female has been basically bullying it, it seems to be worn out now and isnt retaliating to the female pecking at its side any ideas?

You need to issolate the fish if it's worn out.
Think locking lips is a sign of dominance.

Sorry it's breeding behaviour.

yes a sign of dominance like kissing gourami it will just die from stress if you dont isolate it
