I have a clown loach in amongst 4 others, 3 oscars, and 6 red head tapajos...
The one particular loach seems to be doing alot of "flips" in the water and seems pretty playful with the oscars and tapajos. As he is doing his flips through the water he will swim along side/under/over the other fish and rub up agaisnt them. Its not an agressive looking rub, just seems soft and settle and not usually enough to annoy or aggrivate the other fish. This seems to happen more so when there isnt much going on and the others of his kind are caved up.
Is there a reason it is doing this? Or is it just a playful act?
