Silly white clouds

[babygeige]

Sometimes my white clouds do this funny thing where they turn red, spread out their fins, and flutter next to each other. I can't tell if they're "fighting" or courting.

I've always had a hard time catching this behavior on video because if I get too close, they stop.

So this time I laid on my bed so I wouldn't be too close and zoomed the camera as far as it could. So that's why it's kind of shaky; I had my arms held out all the way in front of me, lol.

Isn't it cute? What do you think they're doing?

This is a really good/interesting video (not shaky at all IMO)!

My guess is the same as yours, either fighting or courting, however I lean toward fighting since they both seem to be displaying color

Thanks Carl. They look like teeny hummingbird flitting around when they do that, lol.

I wonder what they're fighting over. They're the only 2 white clouds in there. Unless...they think the CPD is worth fighting over! He's cute and all, but I don't think they'd get very far with him/her...

lol They do look cute when they do that. My male guppies do a similar thing except it is courting, not fighting. I would agree with Carl on what they are doing.
