Hi all and a Merry Christmas.
Today I witnessed my otos getting jiggy...at least I think that's what was going on. A male - I presume - was pestering a female constantly shimmying around her midriff, eventually he pinned her to the underside of a leaf and coiled himself around her, totally immobilising her for around 10 secs. I tried to get a picture but by the time I'd sorted out the camera it was too late and they were back to the business of algae munching again.
Well...has anyone else witnessed this and what is the usual behaviour when it comes to producing little otos?
