I've noticed one of my keyholes will turn on its side and start nudging toward a select few of the other keyholes in the tank when they get near it. Does anyone know if this is a territorial behavior or a breeding behavior?
 
It could be either.Courtship displays and territorial displays can be very similar.
 
I've seen my group do that sometimes, they are very fun fish I sometimes feel like they are interacting with each other but yes could also mean both mating behavior or dominance of the group
