UFC in the reef

[niloc16]

i recently got a small school (3) red bar anthias and they had a little bout with the harem of lyretail anthias already in there. now that that is over they are going at it to decide who will wear the pants in the relationship. i took a couple pics for ya because i think it is hilarious to watch, they do this multiple times a day for the past 2 or 3 days

That is so cool! I thought only FW Cichlids did that....although I've seen Pink Salmon in a spawning creek lock jaws also.

Cheers,
