Just a bit of odd behavior I am wondering if anyone can advise on...Two of my Oscars began jaw locking. Their colors dramatically intensified, and their pupils dilated. They each began to jerk - not vibrate, but jerk. This went on for a few moments, then subsided. Breeding or fighting?

i've seen the same behavior with my o's. i think they were just testing there strengh or maybe establishing there dominance but as long as there's no actual damage to the fish i dont think there is anythinng to worry about.
Warning..I will offend you at some point!!!


my goal is simple a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all
