Strange Cichlid Behavior

[stewnew]

I've seen that a lot, mostly from some of my peacocks.

never seen it in my peacocks though... they prefer to open up their mouths really wide and duke it out like that

I've seen dominant females do shimmies to less dominant females. I know they are females since they have held before. They like to make it clear who is in charge.

Well from what I know theres three females in there, not his species though, and I dont know about the cobalt cichlid. He does pack an attitude, probably the biggest jerk of the whole tank!
