My former bgk. Poor girl went to the pond in the sky after a vicious pleco fight caused collateral damage.
I think she could feel the vibrations of me walking by because anytime I'd approach the tank, despite being a mostly blind species, she'd be front and center "spy hopping" before I could even get the lid open. I could hand feed, pet, even hold her. Gosh I miss that fish.
Currently my most personable fish is a BP that can't figure out if it likes me or if I'm scarier than facing down a pack of famished ally cats lol
I had a 24" plus Jardini that was an awesome wet pet. Unfortunately it would only tolerate two fish, a large Longear Sunfish and a large Thorichthys maculipinnis. It destroyed everything else. Another favorite of mine was a big Amphilophus sagittae. Great fish.
Almost any large enough puffer hands down... My fahaka is literally like a puppy that lives underwater... Greets me everytime i come home, watchesTV with me etc... Great fish with tons of personality...
