I like that one more than the others.
Right now they are circling each other and occasionally locking lips. What I did after I removed the caves was I moved a lot of the gravel to the side so you could see the bottom. I will try to get a clay pot bottom tomorrow.

moving the gravel should b good enough, and locking lips and circling is good courting behavior as long as one isnt trying to get away. just get a clay pot or plate (or try both) from walmart for a few bucks and 'i bet you see them cleaning it and laying eggs in the next week. Just dont get too excited like I always do and try to "help" them by moving anything else or changing their environment too much. If the female gets distressed she will digest her eggs as a defense mechanism. If you dont notice anything after a few days try a 20% water change with COLD water. I like the other female too but I would have to get rid of a few of mine first and I dont know if I want to lol
I recorded what they were doing. I'm gonna upload it and posted here when its uploaded to show you. They have calmed down since then but the female occasionally pecks the male.
wow id say theyre definitely courting right now, and thats gonna make some excellent fry. theyll look like the dyed ones at the lfs except actually real color and they will hopefully have the fh markings. I wish mine were acting like that, my femaly rd is only 4-5" so I have to keep them divided. Im gonna try to put them together in the next few days but Im worried the 10" male will kill her...
I hope you have some luck too. I have been trying for almost a month now, I think part of the problem is hes still a little young. The female has laid egg since she was 2.5" and she now about 4.5".
For some reason the females eye color has changed, yesterday they green and now they are white.
They male is digging in the gravel right now but not the female. She looking at the bottom of the tank.

thats really strange that her eyes changed color, I wonder if that has something to do with spawning? Your signiture cracked me up the other day btw, my motto is the same but with flowerhorns and jags lol. U said you've been trying to put them together for a month?
Yeah but I finally removed all the hiding spots. I figured since she has always spawned in a cave you would prefer it.
