    "Gouramis dancing?" - look like they are breeding!
    The male will not tollerate the female close to the bubble-nest, unless they are in the "breeding-embrace"
    Very nice photos!

    Thanks for the comments guys and gals ^^,

    Gertjc, yeah she stays away from his nest. I think they've both claimed their spots in the tank. He stays on the left and she stays on the right :)

    Ace, I sure do but they're in the tank with the betta as they just breed waaay too rapidly. I wanted to get another tank and try selective breeding them, but there's just no more space for tanks so we're getting rid of all the guppies.

    Thanks Juls I'm glad you like it :)

    Not sure to be honest. I lost count LOL
    Last time there were 7/8 males in the big tank. In the small tank there are a good few babies, mommies and males which still need to grow a bit. Will count them and let you know :)
