Hi there,
New to African cichlids and just received my first group of cynotilapia afra. Although still juvenile I know two are definitely males. I have noticed some interesting behaviour and assume it is the submissive male displaying to the dominant. Whenever the two males are side by side the non dominant kind of leans over to one side and flutters his pectoral fins. Quite funny and cute but is this him backing down to the dominant male?
