I have about a 4 inch blue afican chiclid, not exactly sure what breed it is (maybe a Labeotropheus fuelleborni). Anyways, it sometimes seems to have what looks like a seizure and after its done it tends chase another fish. I was wondering if anyone has ever experianced anything like this. Is it a seizure of just some sort of "dance" it does to scare away the other fish?

I agree. Either breeding activity or a showing of dominance to other fish.

yeah i kind of thought it was a dominace thing because he is the only one in the tank who does it and is also the only really aggresive fish in the tank, just wanted to make sure he wasnt having seizures, thanx.
