I have a 5inc goldenbase flowerhorn, she is very feisty and so far has rejected a male of the same size. So I bought a 9inc male texas hybrid. They have a divider in place, the female is showing the same aggressiveness she always does. Spitting sand, twitching her head, basically all the usual territorial signs.
The male seems very passive even though he could probably fit her head in his mouth lol. I am wanting to let her into his side of the tank but my senses tell me not to.
Also the tank was all hers before he came so that probably has a lot to do with it because it was her territory. The male has only been there 4 days and has settled in nicely and is not shy or scared at all. I have been told to not introduce them for a month so I need some feedback on that to.
Any advice will be taken on board and appreciated. Thank you
