Welcome aboard. I've never kept kings, so I can't really give you an unbiased opinion, but I'm sure the others have made good points.

Hello ... It's been my experience that when you see a smaller garter chasing after a larger one as you described it's mating behavior or at least his attempt to, lol. You stumbled upon an interesting sub-species of the garter persuasion there. I find the O_Reds to be particularly feisty. They are very alert, aggressive feeders. I had a WC once that would spin himself into a tight knit spiral immediately upon grasping his prey. Fun to watch

Best of Luck,
