I started to see changes as soon as I made a single fish in his old 55g when I got rid of all my other fish. He started to show his color more, and mostly his personality.

When I moved him over to the 90g tank, he started acting like a dog! Everytime I come up to the tank he knows im in his presence and he shows alot of funny body language and swims all over the place like he's happy; and will also flip water out of the tank!
If I lean over my tank and look at him from above, he'll almost come completely outta the tank just to try and nip at my finger and sometimes he'll stay at the top of my tank and just look at me until I move away, then he starts acting crazy again...

- My favorite thing about him, is at night time right before I switch my led light to a darker different setting, he'll swim all the way up to the top of the tank and literally let me pet him!

I'm just astonished at the full potential I've given my FH because he is that much better and happier than what he was in my old community tank.

Does anyone else have a FH that has a brought-out personality like mine??
 
Mine, when solo, are like that.

My Midas males , 6 big ones kept together, are also like that, thougn no petting allowed.

I got ya...
I just think it's so crazy how he can recognize me as well; being that there's 3 other people in my house.

I just got back from a 5 day vaca and had told my parents to take care of him for the time being and as soon as I walked back in my door, he started going crazy as if he was that excited to see me... They had said the whole time I was gone he wasn't as active and playful as he was when I'm home.
 
I also believe this guys know exactly who is caring for them, who is feeding them.

Mine respond completely different to me than to the rest of my family.
 
I play with my FH all the time. The more you interact with them the friendlier they become.

I agree!

And I guess thats why he only "knows me" cause I'm the one thats been taken care of him for 2 years. I wonder why sometimes he'll try and bite me though??
