Sometimes it shakes it's whole body for a second, other times it violently jerks forward a few times lasting about 5 seconds in all, and sometimes it's head will twitch.
Ebay, Craigslist, and other second hand selling sites are very good for bargains.Chasing can be a sign of many things, apart from breeding behaviour, dominance, and the fish trying to get rid of a sick or ill fish, it can also be a sign of poor water quality.Here's a video showing both of them (don't mind the Koi Angels in the back). I have a potential pair of angelfish, they are twitching at each other, spreading their fins and showing off at each other, so I put a breeding cone in their tank. And then, all of a sudden, the big one is shooing away the small one (no damage, biting). Sorry not the best but will give a basic idea of what he’s doing.
