too young. puppy love only.

Nice altum...the aros left them alone?

[FlowerHFanatic]

Puppy love sometimes can lead to pregnancy hope happens to my aros

Altums sometimes get free haircut but numbers are maintained haha I count them every morning ...

[CullTail]

Nice aros, bulky and looks in good shape.

Which farm are they from may I ask?

[FlowerHFanatic]

Naughty male from raffles and rest from swift - BCA fishes

[takanori]

Your altums are considered huge as compare to your aro size. Very peaceful comm

[FlowerHFanatic]

If the male keeping rubbing the sides of two pieces in particular does it mean the two are females? I am assuming the male fish is straight...

Bro FHFanatic,

Very Very nice Goldie Comm...not to mention solid A.As! Swee lah.

Would appreciate if you can actually video the "Rubbing" Process or Courtship Process to let hobbyists here advise better.

Cheers,

He is trying to stimulate the female to lay eggs....the rubbing or vibrating of the body against the female created the "growling" sound.
