SAE weirdness
I've got one SAE that's doing the odd quarter rotation while swimming. Seems
to be trying to scrape it's side against the gravel. Another SAE also seems to be chasing this same fish. I'm hoping it's some sort of spawning. If so, what can I do to help make/save babies? TIA.

Most common cause for this is low qiality water (too high nitrite or nitrate level), and second common cause are parasites. Liisa

Plus two of them do seem to be interacting a lot, touching noses, etc.
