ok in my community tank i have a pair of Pelvachromis Taetinus. I am unsure if they are male or female, however, one is alot larger than the other. For aaaages it seemed like they ignored each other, but recently, fin nipping has gone up significantly. Also, after feeding them all bloodworms, the larger kribs pectorals flushed a really deep purple and had a dark pink belly, it was really beautifull! Unfortunatly the deep colours dont show up on the pic. Oh well, anyone have a clue what this means?

I have numerous cichlids, the best way as far as im aware to look for spawning behaviour is a mating ritual, cleaning a specific area, being very territorial and digging a pit
