A big male does the 'alligator thing' as he swims with his head above water and tries to insert himself between the female and the primary escort. Often males will open their mouths and inflate their grooved pouches under their jaws to appear bigger
The female keeps a low profile above, with just her blowhole showing above the surface like the periscope on a submarine The male escort pursues her above left as a challenger prepares to jostle into position The challenger winds himself up in a final attempt to unleash tons of energy at his rival
