right now im growing out some cichlids in a 75 gallon tank. 2 jags 1 veja argentae 1 geo which is the largest and 1 male dovii and 1 female cuban.
i did not know what the cuban was but i assume its female it follows the dovii wherever he goes and they both use the same hiding spot. the dovii is around 4 inches and the cuban 3 inches. the dovii will give a chase once in awile to the jags but the cuban flares up at the jags and the argentae then they both go back to there hiding spot and hang out. now i know there not close to sexual maturity so what explains this behaviour they have toward one another?
 
Just like the company from each other i assume.
Fishguts: What fish is that in your avatar squaring off with the midas?
 
ya it some kind of pike cichlid. i havent had him for along time now. when i bought it he was labled as a black line pike. but im not sure
