Gastromyzons mating?

Post by ilafa » Sun Nov 18, 2007 10:30 am

I just saw my two shy gastromyzons doing the weirdest thing - they were spinning in circles, catching each others tails. I caught it on tape, but the video is bad, because I forgot to switch to macro mode. Here's the link:

I just got three of them few days ago and haven't even sexed them :shock:

i also think that I have 2 different species - on guy has dots/spots and the other two have stripes

Thanks for your help!
