My male anglehead is obviously ready to mate.
I noticed he seemed weird when I picked him up to put him and my female on their feeding rock. (Most of the time they're already sitting there waiting for their crickets.) When I tried to pick him up he puffed up at me and tried to take a bite out of my hand.
Neither of them ate their crickets and they seemed sulky so I've let them run around my room for a bit of a change of scenery.
That's when I noticed the male biting the female in what I took as an aggressive way. When she rejected him he moved in the opposite direction like a dog on heat.

So all you forest dragon breeders/owners, the question(s), what should I do?
Should I seperate them, will he make the female stressed? Or is this normal activity? I've heard they're able to breed effectively at 8 months. The female is 8 months and the male 9 months.
As much info as possible would be much appreciate but only information from people that actually know what they're talking about.
Kind regards!

Also when I say dog on heat, I mean full on rubbing the carpet. It's was actually pretty hilarious to watch.
