Ok, ive developed a little problem here. I bought a pair of common swordtails the bright orange ones and a pair ofmarigold swordtails. I figured theyd look nice together. I was also hoping to maybe have fry so that i could raise them and wouldnt have to buy more.
It turns out that they all hate each other or at the very least dislike each other. They dont swim together or chase each other except for once when they seemed to find each other in a corner. As much as id hope they were trying to breed i doubt it. They just stayed next to each other. Half the time its like they dont notice anything.
They are all in a 55 gallon with a irridescent shark, a rosy barb, tigerbarbs, a convict which tends to keep to himself, 6 danios and 3 gouramis. I have some hygros (planted) and anacharis i believe just floating on the top. Ph is neutral, ammonia, and nitrites are 0 and the temp is 76.
Can anybody help me to get them in the mood? Is it better just to let nature take its course?
