Hi all,

Today I was observing my 2 little guys. One was basking and the other was getting on the rock. Then out of no where he or she bit his arm. Scared the poor guys and jumped into the water. I have them in a small tank right now I'm assuming they would like more space and that will cause aggression. But, I've also noticed they stopped stacking and keep to themselves. I'm honestly not sure if I have 2 boys but will they show aggression this early. They are babies quarter size. I'm just worried. Placed an image of the new tank they will transfer into soon.

Aggression doesn't usually show this early, but it clearly was intentional. Both males and females could show aggression, so it's a no-win situation.
