Problem arise when you buy them already old and they are both females, then female once always female and they will always fight.

The shimmer dance is a sign of submission and the one doing it is generaly the male. Good luck
will they even pair if the one is an true ocil and the other is a percula ?? and if so would they be able to make babies?

I am not 100% sure but I think yes they can mate.

Here is something interesting for you:

Hybrids are called "percularis" ...isn't that cute?
