    Some time ago I saw an interesting sight in my shrimp tank.
    A yamato was on another doing a piggyback for quite a few minutes.
    Wonder if you guys seen such behaviour before.

    Both Yamatos look quite different from the normal one.
    Maybe they behave like monkey? In this case, micro-organism grow on their body so the young one just take them as snack.
