what do your fish do?

[hayden]

i know we all study our fish and learn about there personality's and fun traits but do your fish study you? do they beg for food like a dog? my pacu and Oscar beg for food and im working on getting my Oscar to roll over. also when i watch my pacu he looks back and will make eye contact like he is trying to read my mind.

so what odd things do your fish do? have you figured out why?

My fish are staring at my new ray. I can't figure it out. Seriously, I am not imagining this.

My gouramis seem to tell me to feed them by pointing one antennae at me and the other at the feeding ring.

My Oscar spashes water like crazy when I m a minute late to feed it.

aquamains in g-boro. I am surprised they had it because when I asked if they would order one for me they threw me a line. Got kinda ripped off too. $100 for a retic, but supply and demand...

My fish hide now. The Festae is becoming a lot more aggressive now than she used to be, maybe cause of the dramatic decrease in numbers of tankmates.

my pacu got more active after he ate a couple of his tank mates that were half his size.

I just discovered today that my Gulper doesn't like being petted on it's head. I was trying to feed it today and when the shrimp touched that top of his head, he would turn around and snap, but then he wouldn't eat the shrimp. I did it with my finger and he snapped around to bite my finger. What a silly fish.

meanwhile my senegal is like "hmmm i'm gunna go eat a feeder and some shrimp.....wait i need a gulp of air, wait i think you are lookin at me, i better stair you down"
