    Looks like a standoff.....I would watch them closely for torn fins or bite wounds.

    I havent seen any other aggression at all besides that. No signs of torn fins etc as of tonight.. They seem peaceful to each other

    It usually starts as "warnings". I would keep an eye on both of them.

    That's awesome.
    Ok my did the same thing. I think it's just a friendly fish that likes good grooming.
    Fish are like people. Everyone is different. That trigger clearly likes it.

    Not sure if it's actually cleaning bad stuff off for not. It might think it is. But that's cool.
