It could be breeding behavior but you usually see that in the

Where do you live, I'm from Manchester, UK so starting to get a little
cooler, although it was cool before?

I'm in the mid south of the USA. It's cooling off here as well.

I'm fairly sure the orfs are just playing, they're jumping around and
don't look like they're up to anything like that (can't believe I'm
spying on them like teenagers)
I'll try and checkout the goldfish but I've only had them about 3
months now...
cheers.
