Nope they are dancing more on the bottom in my moss. My males are slim my females are fatter…lol. They all started out slim when they were younger but the females got fatter as they got older but the males stayed slim. Everything in the tank is good and the same and yup I use a product to nutrralize the clorine and chloramines. They act perfectly normal other than this little dance in the moss and around the tank. They are all just now about 8 months old. Im not sure when they start mating but if the males are going to hurt the one female they after I may go ahead and seperate them.
Danios are great dithers or community fish. My favorite is the Choprae. They spawn in a similar swimming dance. There are usually two males courting each female as they dive into the Java moss. I “vacuum” the moss after such evening antics and save the water in white five gallon buckets. I then watch for the fry on the sides and siphon them out and place in a fry tank..usually a 5 gallon. You can use a cooking baster to “suck” them up for rearing.
