    Haha I've never seen him actually flash for her, they seem to have an "ignore one another" relationship. When he's hungry and I stand by the tank he goes on a flashing tantrum like that and shoots all around the tank. lol

    I think she is not impressed by him at all!! She never looks at him. He should try some new tactics.
