So here is a video of what is happening i was watching them for about 20 mins and they kept going, id say over 30 mins as i didnt see the start of it, could be alot longer. Edit - 2 hours later some still going nuts lol. they are just swimming around going nuts, is this there mating dance or something? anyway after 20 mins i saw them starting to attack one, my guess is that it was a female, i saw her molt while 3 shrimp were attacking her, after that they kept picking on her abit, she looked exhausted... she kept swimming to the top of the tank and then falling back down, upside down, she did this couple of times and shrimp attacked her alittle so i though, id make them stop, so i gave them food, this seemed to help, i also decided to catch her and put her in a net at the top of the tank with a rock, so she cant get picked on, ill see if she has removed by tomorrow, im giver her a 50/50 chance of being alive. now one more thing, i can force them to do this dance, i found out when i decide to clean my filter, just having the water stop moving they start going crazy as well, here is a video of that, it is 30 mins long but just skip along and you will see but as soon as the pump goes on they kinda stop and go back to normal, so i guess its about different from the first one, since thats been going for 2 hours now... at the 15 min mark they start going crazy :P
