Endlers (Poecilia wingei) project I

[lingistis]

Δεν το έχει δει σε γκάπι αυτό... τουλάχιστον τα δικά μου γκάπι δεν κάνουν έτσι. Τη συμπεριφορά των αρσενικών endlers που αναφέρω την έχω διαβάσει και ως "flashing" και την έχω παρατηρήσει σε όλα τα αρσενικά μου. Ορισμένα είναι και επίμονα και "φλερτάρουν" την ίδια κοπελιά (man to man) ακολουθόντας την για ώρα σαν κολιτσίδες!!!! Tα δικά σας????

Aπό εδώ μετέφερα το παρακάτω:

"Endler behavior patterns are distinct from the guppy, as well, particularly regarding their courtship. Male guppies are notorious for attempting to sneak up on and mate with anything that moves, and some things that don't, and have been known to gang up on and harry females to exhaustion and death. Endler's don't partake of this same behavior. They're not "sneaky" about trying to get a poke in anywhere they can—they actually court their females and almost remind me of little bettas. They hover in front of the female they're trying to impress, flutter their fins, show off their colors, and display like tiny swimming peacocks. If the female seems uninterested, they may try to step up the show, but if she swims off, they're not prone to sneaking up behind her and trying to mate anyway."
