KISSING or FIGHTING

[Draco Hugo]

It's a mating ritual. The female is testing out the males strength to see if he's "worthy" or not to breed with her. Keep a close eye on them. One of just might snap and try to kill the other one.

My female flowerhorns did the same thing to each other, I think they are fighting. I don't think flowerhorn knows how to kiss.
