Well, some fighting anyway -> some mouth-to-mouth action & a bit of chasing around, but mostly just displaying & displaying & displaying & displaying ... until the 'defeated' peacock goes elsewhere. And then more displaying later on!
The story? I transferred the Baenshi "Nkhomo Reef" to the same tank as the wild-caught Baenshi peacock = instant fighting! A real treat really, but you can see that my wild-caught Baenshi is slightly injured around the mouth area. Some torn fins for both peacocks too.
The Baenshi "Nkhomo Reef" is the fish with the blue face. The wild-caught Baenshi is fully yellow coloured.
Here are some displaying shots:
When he was first put into the tank (Day 1) ... look at how aggressive the wild-caught Baenshi is! He's trying to intimidate the newcomer ...
Day 2 shots ...
