Do Fish Play?

[Debracordell]

Im just wondering i find my swordtails and the guppies and the neon moons swimming up and down and chasing bubbles all the time.. is that them playing or are they crazy fish?

My Platys nibble my fingers if I stick the tips of them in my tank and they *love* water changes [which is lucky given I'm having to do them daily at the moment], They swm quite deliberately into the water that is poured in and try to stay there against the current. They also try to swim against the current produced by the flter.

It's quite funny trying to watch them

Wow, do they bite your fingers or just like suck them? I wish I had a nice tank with "playful" fish in them, I just have a betta who doesn't look very happy, and I don't think hes that healthy to be honest.

my tanks isnt healthy either *sigh* i guess thats why they have been acting so playfull.. *sigh*
