Posted by on July 28, 2006, 2:03 am Please log in for more thread options Most profiles I have read state that Keyholes are peaceful fish. This even applies to conspecific behavior, and breeding habits. However that all seems to go out the window when you toss in the carcass of a Mayport shrimp. The male has turned into a lil' pitbull. Next time I am gonna have to cut thtt thing up!
