As the title states, this is another one of em weird, first-time-seeing, "strange behavior from my poly" threads.

Here's the what happened:
I have recently transfered my fresh grow out 7" CB Delhezi to my main tank. I have a ~12" WC Lapradei in there that keeps a tight guard of his home barely leaving it (check pic). The delhezi is doing great and after about 2 weeks in the new tank, he has claimed (stollen) his own spot in a corner. And just recently I saw the lap outside her place and the del right next to her. She swam back to her place as soon as she saw me but then the weird thing is, I saw the delhezi swim right next to her like fin to fin close. Synchronized swimming. They went back to the cave and were positioned face to face. The del looked like he was sniffing my laps big face. Then after that the del went back to his cave.

Is this some kind of CB mating thing or territorial issue or what? Ever happened to you?

When they do that do their tails look attached to one another?
