behavior update
humu is no longer afraid of me. my pinktail is already reconizing me as the food guy. did a test on it. my kid looked into its hiding spot and it just looked at her. i looked in, it got excited and it went strieght to the top skimming the surface. the pinktail is also hand feeding already witch is a skill my niger took several weeks to do and it is still unsure of my hand. humu still runs from my hand, but not as far and it turns to see what i am doing after it gets a 'safe distance'. i just hope they don't learn from the clowns and damsels. any time i get within 1' of them or their rock they kill my webbing between my fingers. for some reason i think the triggers would be a much more unenjoyable event.

...i have been bitten by every fish i own except the new triggers. i plan/hope it stays that way as the pinktail has some hardcore toothage.
