So, something very interesting happened today in my tank. My kribensis pair which were in the tank since almost a month now, and were happy until yesterday are apparently filing for a divorce. The female kribensis was beating the bejewels out of the male which was totally frightened in a corner of the tank. And every time she had a chance she would follow him as if she were possessed. So I took her out and put her in a 10G tank to write this post and ask:
What can I do now?!
10 minutes after taking the female out, the male who did not even grab a bite had restored colors and was behaving as usual.
EDIT: I do see her a bit more skinny. Is it possible that she laid eggs and now is kicking even the male out of the territory? If it is, is this something common? What can I do then?
Finally I have 2 angels and a few cories. If I leave the male alone in the tank my great fear is:
Will he begin to bother other fish now that he is all alone with no female to chase (...well at least it should have been that way)???
PLEASE! I appreciate any help now :help:. THANKS!!
PS: The tank was/is a 38G, heavily planted with rocks and driftwood.
