I have 8 platys (4m, 4f -not a good ratio, I know...working on that) one of the females is very pregnant. Is it typical for a male to "defend" a pregnant female? One of our males is constantly at her side, he leaves her alone, but he chases off any other fish (male or female) that gets near her.

Just curious. :)
