Females lip-locking

[Italy592]

Can or is it even possible for females to lip lock with a male or another female !??

 

[absolutangel04]

Yes.
What sort of fish are you talking about? Despite the answer, yes its possible.

I don't see why they couldn't, some females can be pretty nasty.

Red zebras and I didn't know I never heard of anyone talking about it ao I was asking cuz I had ordered specifically one make and 2 females and I saw two of the red zebras lip locking and I was curious. Now I know that it is I got two females and one male because my lfs guy is a family friend and called the company he gets then from and ordered them special so what's going on guys ??

You will get lip locking but it's not such a bad thing as it shows that the fish ate fairly evenly matched and are staking out territory.
If one starts to run and hide then you might have problems.

Ok but I thought makes only make territories

Ok but I thought makes only make territories

What I mean us it could be the male stamping his authority trying to establish his territory and the female is having none of it.
Like Mogurako said females can be pretty nasty too.

Ok so since I trust my lfs guy cuz he like a family friend and he ordered 1 male an 2 female than that's what I probably got ??

My female lock lipped with my male once and they have been very peaceful towards eachother ever since
