Do the male fight with lock jaws to obtain dominance or is this male/female cortship in red zebras. Is this a way to tell the difference. I also have a female with a large blug in her throt. Does this mean she has babbies and when will i see the fry?

yes, she either has eggs or fry in her mouth, depending on how long she's been holding. mbuna usually hold for 3-4 weeks.
