Brine

I used to have a few Gibbiceps Plecos (Glyptoperichthys gibbiceps) and one of them use to like being stroked. I would reach in the tank and stroke her and she would raise her dorsal fin and display wonderfully. She would not swim away but sit still while I stroked her flank.

So............was that a breeding tube I see extended and is this activity just
all mating behavior?

Our Oscars would allow this too but there was always the odd nip of fingers
involved.

Cute for sure.
