Yeah, I talk when I feed...we should start a club...and have jackets!

I've got the perfect jacket in mind...

Seriously though, I talk to my fish too. A lot of it is directed to my loaches and is usually "What are you doing, you idiot?" as they try to swim 'upstream' into the return pipe from my sump.

Hey you stole that jacket style from the "My Fish Talk To Me" club...

...your loaches are trying to talk to you, and you have to listen with your eyes...they are saying
"Hey DaD!!, look what I can do!!- look what I can do!!-, I can do this see??!?" look at me!!"

Listen to them, and talk nice to them and they'll grow faster...
maybe a small powerhead for exercise? ;) :thumbsup:
 
Very nice jackets.
This morning I asked my husband to feed the betta before we left, and he was talking to him. He asked him to wish him luck with his hospital tests he got today. It was kind of funny, especially because he was also asking the fish how much food he wanted, I'm pretty sure the answer was "all of it!"
 
Funny, I only talk to King Charles, my largest catfish (RTC). He is the king of the tank, and I ask him about his subjects and how everything is going... I'm one crazy lady....... I don't talk to any of the other fish in any of the other tanks... Just him!
 
i talk to my fish a lot, keeps me sane :-)
 
Indeed.
 
A thought to the person who made the fish whisperer comment.

How good of a trainer is the dog whisperer , what kind of realtionship does the horse whisperer have with equine. Correlate that conclusion!!!!
 
I have a pretty standard conversation with my fish almost every time.

"Hey fishes.. how ya doin?"
-----stare----
"Whats going on? Fish stuff?"
----swim wiggle stare with feed me eyes----


My boyfriend talks to them too. But that's my standard greeting for the the fish when I see them the first time on any given day.
 
have to bring up my one fish a female adult zebra tilapia who will when I put my hand in the tank make it a point to come and swim against the inside of my hand, one time I tried to do this to another fish in the tank and she gave me a nip and flared.
