Let me elaborate. My bichirs are really small right now, but I'm getting them used to my hand. I'll pet them very gently, and now they'll actually come up and "smell" my hand. Sometimes they'll nip at my finger softly and even follow it if I move it away slowly. It's really funny to watch. One of them also "rides" in my hand when I cup it and slowly move it around the tank. It's hilarious, he'll just stay there and swim along with it. I stop, he stops. It's great.
No worries, I don't do this too often, so I won't stress them out.
I was curious if anyone else's bichirs do this? And will they be just as tame when they're bigger??
Here's a picture of one just chilling in my hand haha:
