Hi
I recently had a yellow lab holding, after what was probably a week I removed her from the main tank to a floating hatchery in the main tank for what was about 2 weeks before I stripped her which produced 15 pretty large and healthy fry.
Once I returned her to the main tank both males got extremely aggressive with each other and with her, the largest male was showing clear signs that he wants to breed again. I noticed on the first day they were hiding away performing some dancing ritual and then I thought I saw her mouth full again. I checked again the next day and her mouth just seems normal however she is constantly being chased by both males and ends up hiding in a corner somewhere, she hasn't eaten a thing since I stripped her which is now about 5 days. I have moved the large male into another tank as he was really aggressive. Now I'm wondering if there is anything I am doing wrong? I want to move the other male but I fear that the big guy might harass him too. She has lost loads of weight and I think if I don't do the right thing she might not eat again.
Any good advice is much appreciated.
Thanks
