Odd Fish Behavior??

[rachaelsosilly]

Okay, so my male fancy guppy is like, obsessed with my sunset coral platy. He like, follows it around and like, touches it with his face? It doesn't look like he's trying to hurt it, and there is no fin nippage. Is he trying to hurt it? Is this normal for guppies? Are they ever aggressive? Help!

Haha.

Maybe he wants to get lucky? and is failing 0_o

Do you have other guppies in the tank? He may be trying to mate if there are no other guppies.

That's probably it then, I have no other guppies. Haha, horny little guy.

My Tequila Sunrise Guppy (male) is always doing the same thing to my female guppies. I now have 13-15 fry so I'd say he is trying to breed with anything that moves.

Well I do not want any babies in my tank, haha, so no female guppies for him.
