Yes, I have seen other animals like kittens do it and birds. I just did not think it would be a fight to the death.

This may pose an issue in my tank. I have a penninsula and can see the fish seeing themselves in the end of the tank when the light conditions at certain times of the day, create a mirror for them...
Who would have thunk...man, learn something new everyday. Only been doing this for a year and something as simple as that, I did not know. I will have to do more research...geesh...
