kidnapping: Have you ever observed the kidnapping
behaviour of some apistos (different species)? I did observe it for many
times, a recent one is: A female A. sp. tefe is guarding her fry for some
time, and a female inka (which has NOT got any fry of herself yet and is kept in the same tank as the sp. tefe) swims nearby, changes its colour pattern, and finally, i observe that two (and only two) A. sp. tefe's fry are kidnapped and are living with the inka female!! It is an interesting
observation and i would like to know if there are
any similar experiences for sharing.
