Hey everyone. Well, I finally was able to have a male flowehorn and a female flowerorn to hopefully breed. The female is eating, but the male doesn't seem interested in eating. I've tried raw prawns, pellets, sticks, and krill. He'll come up to the food like he's interested but he gets close but doesn't eat. Is this normal during breeding or should I be worried that he has some kind of disease. No duck lips and his poop isn't white but I'm hoping that that's what males do during breeding. I know that when a flowerhorn starts to poop long white strands it has a disease but I've only fed him dried food , frozen bloodworms and raw shrimp. Please tell me it's normal or what should I do? Thanks, Ed
 
Anyone?

Moderators. Can you remove this post because I'm not getting any feedback so I moved it to the breeding section.
