So I was redoing some stuff in my 33gallon and decided to temporarily move my female Bolivian ram into my 75g with my male firemouth. After a couple days I noticed she’d taken a real liking to him. She often follows him around the tank like a lost puppy and he doesn’t seem to mind most of the time, she’s even cleared off the smooth base to one of my larger fake plants and often guards the area. She’s even become aggressive toward my gourami which can be a little amusing considering she’s half the size. They’re both around 2.5in so I know the firemouth is a little small for breeding yet but they do seem to be acting paired up especially the ram, I’m curious if anyone has heard of Bolivians and firemouths breeding or if it’s even possible, if so I might leave her in the tank a little longer and see if anything else happens.
