Pretty strong bait, couldn't resist, more so as this is the CCA and far as I know all the males are sweet and gentlemanly sorts (mostly).
May well be that he's protecting them from her cannibalistic ways - that's at least part of why my obongum male generally drives off the female a week or so after their fry become free-swimming - she starts snacking.
