female fish, male fish are chasing...

[D 10]

I have not become female Dicrossus filamentosus spawn at the moment. I do not see signs of mating. But my female Dicrossus filamentosus, three days male Dicrossus filamentosus began to chase. The lower fin of the female fish was red. Even the female fish, do not eat the male fish to feed. Is this normal? Female fish, can kill a male fish? What can I do?...

Either move them to a bigger aquarium, add more plants and wood so he can hide, or put a temporary screen divider in the tank. It sounds like your female is ready to breed and the male is not yet ready. That's unusual for female Dicrossus to be so aggressive when not guarding eggs.

Thank you, sir. Male, female twice. But probably not ready for men like you say. A physical damage can be seen in men at the moment. Wait, we'll see then...
