HI all, I'm new to Kribs and I'm not sure what I have here! Red1 and Red2 are larger than the other which I believe is male. But to me the Reds also appear shaped like males, and I have seen pics of males with red bellies and their tails seem to have a similar shape. Red1 and 2 don't seem to like each other much and will sit almost nose to nose, swimming forward and backward in unison, sizing each other up but rarely actually fighting, they just say on opposite sides of the tank. They also chase the smaller one around although I have seen Red1 (spots on tail fin) appear to take charge hustle him to the hideout a fair bit. I'm thinking I might have 3 males but I hope you can enlighten me! Thanks and sorry about the photo quality.
