Hello,

Im starting this thread to see if anybody has some enrichment ideas for their fish.
Yes, I'm aware that fish just aren't "smart" like a dog or parrot. But I'm also aware of the fact that fish do indeed appreciate "enrichment" activities. Please share any ideas below.

The only thing I've heard is normally used for rays and catfish. You get a PVC tube of appropriate size, cap both ends, and drill a few holes in. You pack it with some food and let the cats and rays play with it. Bonus to this is the bottom dwellers get food of they have tankmates that normally keep them from eating.

I have rocks and driftwood for my fish.
 
I've seen people put ping pong balls ect for their fish to knock about.
 
get one of those balls for hamsters that they can roll around in, and put some feeder fish inside it and watch how frustrated your fish get

I have one of them lol.
I have a planted tank and I feed my fish on one side of the tank then put food in the plants on the opposite side for them to hunt out.
