:iagree: on the launching but not 100% on the comm of aros. well for silvers, if you are lucky you can comm 2 together without any tank mates.
Yes, two silver may be comm without tankmate. I have seen it's done in the past
 
I really wouldn't call darting from 2cm away "launching", its just a quick reaction so it can bite the other aro. Would the african be able to bite the other aro if he was moving slower? If thats really what launching is, that tank is more than enough for a silver to launch forward.

Don't you notice he has all those plants? :D

I've seen the tank in question, and unless Phil gets lazy the top half of the tank is usually free of plants, so the silvers have a 6x3' swimming space. They have plenty of room.

I hope they're not starting to fight Phil, they looked good together, would be a shame to have to get rid of one...

So, you prefer "darting" over "launching" :ROFL::ROFL::ROFL: And you still can't separate between biting (mouth movement) and "darting" (body movement!) :grinno: I bet Mike Tyson thought the same when he went for Evan Hollyfield's ear :ROFL::ROFL::ROFL: He must "dart" at Hollyfield's ear:ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:

Well is an aro going to float there and bite? To me launching is long distances. Darting is just a twitching movement.

They can bite when they swim, even in circle, agree? Twitching is the movement of the body, leaning the head aside to bite. "Darting" is also movement of body, fast swimming, to tackle. Biting only result torn fins, torn tail, lose a scale. Add "darting" to it will result in major scales lost, body damage, or internal organs damage. They start the fight with twitching and biting, and escalate to "darting"

Mine is not good either. :grinno: We learn from each other through debate! :D
 
i guess time will tell

imo i dont think its fighting, if you see them in real life swimming they are very gentle with each other, never fight even for food
