Hi everyone!
I just received my first shipment from Kenny yesterday afternoon. They are beautiful, and Kenny was a pleasure to work with. Two of the fish, the neon sapphire and golden diamond have begun to exhibit some interesting behavior. They have become very territorial over a rock cave in the tank, and when alone will shake next to each other. Does this look like pairing or mating behavior to you? Thanks a lot for your input!

Thanks :) that's what I thought! Surprised to see this behavior so soon after placing them in the tank.

That isn't terribly out of the ordinary. Good luck
