Anthius Behavior

[DeepBlueSea]

Picked up two Anthius about 4weeks ago. They seem to be fine health wise, but I just noticed some strange behavior. They either were fighting or mating or who knows. They had each other by the mouths facing each other and seem to be doing battle. This behavior went on for about 15 minutes now one of them seems to be swimming around.

Any thoughts?

mouth to mouth = fighting

what species do you have? what size tank? FWIW, most anthias need to be kept alone.
