Breeding Question?

Its normal for most cichlids to get violent when they are in spawning mode. Question is what are they doing right now, are they still fighting and if so how are they fighting?
no there not fighting they get along fine. But they have all these bite marks on their faces and the males kok is all torn up. I just put the divider back up. Should i just leave then alone together?

If they are done fighting and getting along together that is a good sign. If one is chasing the other then you should divide them but otherwise if they are getting along keep it down.
Flowerhorn have a super weak immune system when it comes to breeding. And many flowerhorn die from no apparent reason after breeding(mostly males). If they're tearing each other up, put the divider up. Unless you want a dead fish after breeding. I've had my fair share of it...multiple times.
so how long would i have to keep the divider up for?

Until her tube fully drops. Then take the divider out and monitor them cautiously. Don't want to bug them too much. Fish will vary from one to another. Bugging them too much can result in egg eating.
Oh ok Thanks. Also will the cuts leave scars? Or will they heal back to normal?
