I have what I believe to be 2 males and one female.
The larger of the males swims to the female and "flick", "flick", "flick" his fins go. I think he is probably trying to entice her.
The problem is, she seems a bit more interested in the other male. So, she will swim over to him as if to check and see if he will dance for her as well.
The interesting thing is that every time the larger male comes near, the second one will fold all his fins in tight to his body as if to say "Don't worry, I'm not threat to you".
Has anyone else noted this kind of submissive behavior between makes?
