ok..i know several people have harleys out here...i would like to ask about there behavior and possible spawning behavior.

while i can't say for certain as i just got home but all of a sudden two harleys seem to have become a little territorial around the java moss. they will chase anything off that comes near but not each other. very interesting.
 
Rasbora's chasing each other? :shocked: I have 10 in my tank, and have never seen any aggression. But they haven't ever spawned either, so it could be that.
 
I don't ever see aggression with mine during their mating rituals either. They just act weird - they dance and wiggle with each other. They swipe themselves on the undersides of the leaves. They turn very red. They are cute.
 
harley's turn red?
 
ok...just gonna chalk it up to strange behavior i guess
 
Harlequin rasboras are great schoolers. I think they are awesome little fish.
