Just notice that my Angels are acting a little wierd today. One Angel is spending all its time poking its nose into the nooks and cranny's of a fake platic plant. I have seen Platy fry hiding in those nooks in the past (though not recently), so I assumed this was some sort of hunting behavior. However, the other Angel is spending all its time chasing every other fish around the tank. It is being agressive towards the Platies, the Danios, and the Tetras. then it comes back to where the other one is and hangs out for a while, then it starts chasing fish again. One angel seems to do all the chasing, the other seems to be inspecting plants real closely. I had not seen the angels bother any of the other fish before.
So, I figure either there are Platy fry hiding in this one plant or area and the Angels have laid claim to it, or the Angels are thinking of pairing off? Could this be some sort of courtship ritual where one fish defends the area, and the other looks for an egg spot?
I dunno. The angels seem to be diving into nooks and crannies reall agressive too. Some sort of feeding frenzy brought on by the live food (platy fry?) - but I haven't seen any, and probably won't with this degree of predation.
