Hey all
Today my celebes are feeling rather frisky, especially the dominant male. He's been trying to get the female's attention all day. She's pretty much ignoring him right now, though If you ask me, I think she has a thing for another male with a darker complexion (but he's more interested in yet another male - sounds like it could be an episode of "As The Fish Swims").
So, I snapped some quick pictures (excuse the dirty glass, I didn't expect to take any pictures today)...
Oh, also, upon inspection right before I took these pictures, I noticed a small white bump on the dominant male's lip. Looking really closely, it appears to be a damanged scale...but given how prone these guys are to mouth fungus, I'm removing him this afternoon to a quarantine tank.
- When they're in the mood, they develop a deep, dark coloring that has a sort of gold reticulation to it. It is VERY pretty in person...
This is going to be a short series of posts. It wont let me include all pics in one message...
