He is just getting aquanted with her. HE might thou, hurt her if she is NOT ready to spawn.. so does she have a lot of orange on her tummy?? if not, then U need to make other arrangements for her or get a divider to keep her safe until the orange comes up.. This signals the male that she is ready to spawn.. some floating plants on top wil help her hide better, flake ones are fine just let them float on top.. She wil hide in them UNTIL SHE is ready to spawn..
