Just wondering what going on with my hi-fin gobies, the one has lost his mind and is showing "goby aggression" to everything for the last 24h
( I mean everything including the snail eggs...) no one is listening but I was just wondering why he/she might be doing it?

Is it possible that the pair has mated and he/she is guarding them?

thanks
oh here's a pic.
He/she seems very stressed out and has barely eaten in the last two days.
 
Also this ones colour is extreamly faded and it has a very black belly area
(one in pic)

The other hi-fin is acting less protective ( it's the shyer one) but is always on guard at the other entrance. And I have seen it go after a few snails.

Is anyone famailiar with hi-fin breeding behaviour?
or cave dwelling gobies?
is their anything I should be looking for?

I believe that their breeding/have breed since I can't think of anyother explination.


thanks
Kinda excited, hope they are having babies ;) I'll be a grandma!

I thnk I'm to young to be a grand mother
 
Well the gobies are starting to settle, their still a little protective of their hole but not as much so as before. And they've started to wat again which is nice.
