Anthony,
I recently purchased 2. Was told that they are quite rare and I might be successful in breeding them. Well after about a week and a half the female (larger one) is pretty much staying in one spot with the light on, with the male comming over every once in a while. I thought she might be sick but she will move for food and isnt breathing heavy. At night she goes with the male to their night spot and they are exhibting some weird behavior, both will shake their back fins like mad and stay really close. It almost looks like the male is kissing her as weird as that sounds, she stays really close to the sand too. Was wondering if any of you know if this might be some kind of mating ritual. I hope it is cause I would love to breed them, paid 60 bucks for the pair!!
Thanks,
Jim
