Posted by Den on August 16, 2006, 8:51 am Please log in for more thread options I think one of my red rainbows is in love with my pangasius! I have three or four red rainbows in a tank with Bozeman , Australian and blue rainbows. There's also 2 pangasius (mainly cos it's the only tank big enough). For the last few weeks (at least 8) one of the red rainbows has been almost inseparable from the same pangasius. I don't know the sex of either but he (?) quivers against the pangasius head sometimes. (just quivers, the rainbow's not flicking or anything like that) Other times they are just together the rainbow always at the pangasius head. It's not remotely aggressive and they seem to enjoy it. Weird!

Yes, I know that takes away from the glory of the of love but we all have have our reasons, don't we? It is not out of line for your rainbow to "groom" so to speak, your pangasius. But I would not expect any hybrids from this relationship, if you know what I mean.
