mating chromis?
 
curious if anyone has seen or had chromis mate in their tanks. for the past 2 nights i have had the 2 largest chromis of the school do a strange jitter dance next to each other at the bottom middle of the tank and then they scurry off to find a hole in the rocks. the holes have not been their regular sleeping spots though. while they are doing this the other chromis create somewhat of a circle around the two, i dont know if it is to protect them or to observe what is going on. if you guys want i'll try and get some pictures.

Really bizarre that you post about this now. I have been noticing two of my chromis pairing off and "kissing"...but wasn't sure if it was mating or something else. It doesn't seem to be aggressive.

Sounds like spring is right around the corner folks.

I have some yellow chromis that have been mating for a long time now.
