fish and laser pointers

[scriving]

my dog loves chasing laser pointers i pointed at my tank while she was chasing it and to my surprise my jar started chasing it.

I can get my angelfish to swim upside down with a laser dot. He'll chase it down and then when I change directions back to horizontal, he just keeps rolling until he's vertical and completely upside down for a few seconds. Yeah, fish like 'em.

You've just got to keep your finger on the off switch. The blinding happens quickly, I've heard.

I took video recently (need to upload it) of me getting 2 dogs, 2 cats, and the fish in 2 tanks all to chase the laser dot, all in relatively quick succession. It was pretty funny.

I use to have RBP's that were so laid back and non-agro, But a laser made them go into kill mode. Funny stuff, But then I read that too much concentrated light can blind a fish instantly so I no longer teased them.
