View Full Version : Mating Silver Tip Tetras?

Hello all,
I've been noticing a rather unusual behavior among my silver tip tetra.
Seem that several of them are consistantly chasing one particular one.
specifically, there are three that are similar in color and them appear to
fight over who gets to chase a smaller less colorfully bold Silver Tip.
Does anyone have an idea on how to sex Silver Tip Tetras? Also, what is
expected mating behavior for these fish?

I have other fish (Bala Sharks, Danios, Pricilla Tetras and an Angel) in the
tank as well and never intended to breed any of the fish. I'm just
wondering if this is a by product of something I may have stumbled into...

Thanks,
Justin
