Hey all. I have a pair of balas in my 90 gal and recently they have started paying a lot more attention than usual . They will swim together and do moves akin to snakes mating. Are they mating and how do I tell which is the boy.?
They are about 2 inch's long.

never had bala's so I'm not so sure, bump, Kyle
 
Well there ignoring each other as usual today. Kind of neat to watch but nothing seems to have come of it.
:rolleyes:
 
I watched a pair of Balas do the same thing in the office tank. It just seemed they were very happy at the time because I had just fed them after a 5 day fast (the owner of the tank neglected to come by and feed them for almost a week).

They swam around playing through bubbles and swimming around an against each other. Hasn't happened since.
 
at the very least i'd say that means you're making a couple balas very happy 8)
