As for neons, Tokis, I'm sure they're really deep thinkers. They probably ask themselves meaningful questions like,

'How did I get over here?'

'What are these little thingies flapping at my sides?'

and

'How did I get over here?' :p
LOL :lol:
I wonder if they can tell each other apart :D like "this is a my mum, no, wait, this is my mum :blink: ! "

But what if the whole 'silly-little-shoaling-fish-with-a-miniscule-brain' thing is all an act? For all we know, neons might be members of a highly developed civilisation with a government system and great technology...

And then again, maybe no. :p

like i said aliens! :alien: they are here to study are inferior human minds and when a fish dies it means he has failed a mission!! :p the master isnt pleased!!
 
I'm pretty sure my otocinclus are trying to eat their way through the glass. They have beady little eyes that give away their malevolent intentions. They are much smarter than we give them credit for. I think I saw one wink at me once.

Either that, or they just like the sucking on the glass.
 
lol a winking fish... what about big ol' oscars like the 13 inch ones!! hmm i wonder what wild caught fish think! they probly freak out cause they were once in a big ol' river/ ocean now they are in a tiny box :p A GLASS CAGE OF EMOTION!!!

Hmm I brought home 5 of the little winkers we'll see how they fair.
 
I can hear my pleco talk sometimes and all i managed to understand was

"ALLGAAEEEE.......algaegetalgaemustgetalgaemusteatalgaealgaelage.......my algae."

Hmmmm really.
 
lol yea from the way my pleco acts that seems like what he thinks about!! he sits there and he sees the ottos and he is like ..."what are they? are they here to take my algae? i cant let them do that? its mine! no they must be gotten rid of! stupid mini mes! i hate you! no wait thats mine! hey stop that... i would move but... will they eat the algae im workin on? omg it looked at me! WHAT AM I GONNA DO????"
 
haha good one "THEY ARE MY BUBBLES AHHHHHH" and then when the dirty bubble comes out he is like " YEY" and then it pops and he coughs!!

:lol:
My purple spotted gudgeon-Mo-only thinks about food, he also thinks that if he stares at me head to head that he will get more food :p

Sunny my severum uses the same technique as Mo, but Sunny goes about it calmly, until he sees the food container, and at that point he looses it, and my sev and geo join in the hungry dance :rofl:

My peacock gudgeons seem to think that they are bigger than me and rule their tank, even though they are still less than 2" long :blink:

My dwarf puffers seem to be very intelligent, well, curious that is :) They are always examining me, not trying to get fed. They want to know what I am and what I'm doing, they come up to the front of the glass, but if I try to get closer, they back up until I back up :lol: They're plotting something sinister, I know it :shifty:
 
Clown knives when I put a big rock in to lift the filter: "here comes a big thing to crush us turn sideways might miss..." :crazy: good thing I was paying attention. "you can throw us all the pellets you want we're eating feeders."

The jack dempsey has convinced itself it's every bit as big as those two.

The community fish just want food...

The bichirs do seem interested in what I'm doing but don't get exited until they see me thawing bloodworms. Then they guard small piles of worms. They ignore the oscar but sure move out of the way for the gobies (marbled and violet are equally frightening).

The koi and goldfish are totally convinced I must have food for them. They come up and chew on my hand before they get fed but once they realise no food they ignore me lol.
