So last evening briefly before lights out, we noticed our Siamese Algae Eater pair behaving in a rather unusual way.... Their dark stripe was nearly completely faded and they were circling and shimmying together.
This morning they were back to their usual colorful, normal playful selves. My research seemed inclined to indicate they were either breeding or being territorial with each other. (Though no one has reported actual successes in them breeding, nor do I expect so with how voraciously the danios will eat the bloodfins eggs around here)
Here's a short video that I took from last night. Its a bit fuzzy but I think you will get the gist of what they were doing. (And yes, that's me with the remainder of a cold voice telling the Angelfish to go away at the end)
