Stuck inside my own head
I have a bumblebee cichlid that has to splash me as much as possible every time I open the lid. It has nothing to do with wanting food or anything else, he's just a jerk and wants to get me as wet as he is. Does anyone else own any fish that have similar rude habits?
 
My Armatus the little son of gun is always tryin to bite me. Feeding time he gets way too excited and full on jumps out of the tank the minute my hand is over it. Worst part is he keeps getting higher, first he barely broke the waters surface, now he's full on out. I know he's gonna catch me one of these days.

He's inviting you in, to be his room mate. LOL.
 
My little Kamfa, fish is a total jerk! ill be arranging the plants, or anything where my hand or arm is in the tank and he bites the heck out of me, i mean it doesnt hurt but hes a little turd!
 
I know right it's not like the little bites hurt, but it's annoying and surprising that they would attack something so much bigger than they are, plus it's the bringer of food.

exactly! i just know i am going to have to watch out for it when it gets bigger, my other one is about 4-5 inches and has bit me a few times and caught me off guard, but the smallest fish is the most agressive when it comes to getting me hand. Total Aqua Jerk!!!
 
My silver Arow tries to take my thumb off every time I feed her. Seems about every third time I feed that fish some how it gets one of my fingers down its throat as it "goes in for the kill".
