My former bgk. Poor girl went to the pond in the sky after a vicious pleco fight caused collateral damage.

I think she could feel the vibrations of me walking by because anytime I'd approach the tank, despite being a mostly blind species, she'd be front and center "spy hopping" before I could even get the lid open. I could hand feed, pet, even hold her. Gosh I miss that fish.


Currently my most personable fish is a BP that can't figure out if it likes me or if I'm scarier than facing down a pack of famished ally cats lol

I had a 24" plus Jardini that was an awesome wet pet. Unfortunately it would only tolerate two fish, a large Longear Sunfish and a large Thorichthys maculipinnis. It destroyed everything else. Another favorite of mine was a big Amphilophus sagittae. Great fish.

I've only had 1 wet pet which was a Texas/Jag hybrid. I didn't like him in the 125 by himself so I got rid of him.
