do u guys have problems cleaning ur gravel becuase ur fish is to agressive whenever u put ur hand in the water.
 
My bass bit me once while I was cleaning, I got a rasberry.
 
you know i was afraid of that when i got my 4 RBP. and suprizing enough they run away from my hand. i have only had one fish hit the glass at me, and that was my GT, she had just laid eggs, and i was pointing at them and the flaired her gills and hit the glass... she has never done it since...
 
my rd will bag feriously at the glass and will walk the walk or in his case swim the swim as he will bite and jump out the water.

This fish was so mean I had to get rid of him. I'm so sad I loved that fish but didn't have a solo aquarium at the time. :cry: He bit the glass, the python, my hands, fingers, arms...whatever came near or in the tank was gonna get owned.

I usually catch my male flowerhorn and put him in a cooler when he starts biting. He hits hard and makes me bleed every time I get bit, so I don't mess around when he starts to flair up.
