Pet Forum / Aquaria / General / June 2004Randy Platy
These guys will chase anything ! This morning I've been watching a tiny Platy male, chase a Silver Shark 5 times it's size all over the tank, with amorous intentions :- ) Well I assume it was love, with these plucky little guys he might have been after a snack !  SignatureEdward Cowling - London - UK >These guys will chase anything ! Close enough. I guess that they have the idea that if they are not acting super horny with every possible mate, then it won't be their DNA in the offspring. After all live bearing fish often means many brother fish to compete with. >This morning I've been watching a tiny Platy male, >chase a Silver Shark 5 times it's size all over the >tank, with amorous intentions :- ) Sounds to me like he has no female friend and so has to put up with illegal fishy porn. :-] >Well I assume it was love, Fish know of no such thing. As it is all food, sex and not to get eaten. When you will never see the big fish move aside to let the poor little fish have some food. Then lets not mention fish incest. When most aquarium breeding involves brothers and sisters, fathers and daughters, or in the case of my White Mollies mothers and sons. >with these plucky >little guys he might have been after a snack ! Possible, when my Golden Tiger Barb see my Scissor Tail fish as food, even though they are about four times his length. Cardman. |
