Red face strange behavior

my little one spot foxface is cuddling up to my huge volitan lionfish like a moth to a flame , has anyone else seen this type of behavior?

No, but I hope it's cuddling up to the tail end.

Red face

right about the middle he rubs up against the lions dorsal spikes at the side of course very neat to see and absolutely no agression

Sounds like the safest place to be, right tight to the side.

Some what. The lion fish eat what it see. It can't see back alone his sides. Kind of like blind spots of a car. Which make it the best hiding spot in the tank. Survival

it has no reason to hide from the lionfish they have been face to face quite a bit and no agression is shown
