mandarin vs mandarin

i got a male green mandarin several months ago which was fat and happy. being the genius i am i decided to add a psychedelic mandarin of the female persuasion about 3 months ago. both mandarins wwhere fat and happy and pods where running on the glass. i had seen the female which is half the male's size pick at him but nothing serious. today i noticed my green mandy in distress and noted that his flesh was peeling off. i saw the female attacking him shortly after. i dont know if she killed him but no one else bothered him and pods were available. anyone ever had this happen. did she decide to dispatch him and hoard the pods?
