OBSIDIAN "Is the male chasing the fatter females around the tank? Not just following, chasing and at times it will look a little like they are going to fight, but they tend to keep their heads out of it. If they are doing this then that is spawning. If they are just swimming and chasing and never coming together its just regular chasing. Even though the tank is not cycled IME fish will attempt to spawn. So this is one possibility. "



I have three "golden danios" and one short finned zebra danio. I have noticed this morning that the zebra danio is constantly on the golden danio following it everywhere. I got a little concerned becuase is looked like the golden danio was rubbing up against rocks, going into tight spaces and then doing little circles in the pebbles. I was thinking maybe it was sick but the zebra danio only seems to be attracted to this particular fish. Sometimes it looks like they are wrestling. Is this possibly SPAWNING?
