blue damsel behavior

I noticed 2 of my blue damsels were swimming around in synchronization last night. Beautiful display. Anybody have any idea what they were doing or why they were doing that?

Also, I've had mine for 10 months now. Not a one of the 3 of them show any signs of markings (I understand that males are supposed to have orange tails when they mature, females have black spots). Any idea how long it takes for a damsel to mature?

Thanks in Advance!

They were colaborating on an attack plan for any of your future fish purchases

LOL...I know that's true. It's a good thing I really don't want to add anymore fish to the tank.
