Re: nice surprise

["Matt & Linda Crocker" <crockerm@peak.org>]

    They are quite ornery, at first when they were new they were not
much trouble.  As they became more accustomed and territorial, he became
very aggressive, that is when I put the leaves in for some cover.  After
they had they're little fun, mother chased him away, and she has kept
him at distance since then.

    I think he was defending his territory to impress her, and then
afterwards he has kept his distance peacefully.  I haven't observed the
male taking any roll in the care of the fry.
