I usually am up by 3.30am most of the days and start checking on the tanks around 4am.. being sunday and a little lazy i went a little late and observed two things.. unfortunately i didn't have the phone on me to take a video.. the oscars, as i had mentioned earlier, had formed pairs.. usual signs of spawning.. flaring.. lock jaw etc.. this particular pair were shooing away the RTC.. he he he he.. it was real funny to watch.. but at the same time.. my largest aro went by and they broke it up and sank low..
the next thing i observed was the aros.. my two largest aros.. gandalf and akira.. both are around 26".. i think its sort of a dominance ritual or something.. they were parallel to each other but ones head to the others tail.. and started making these circles.. i thought they'd break it up but they went on for close to some 30 to 40 seconds.. no attacks nothing.. jus making circles and then they broke it off.. will try to catch a video sometime.. cheers..
