I use to hand feed my piranhas back when I still had fingers
Aaawww! I do the same when I give frozen tubifex or bloodworms, the guppies are a bit more skittish, but the large mollies are fearless and will eat right from your hand, so wasn't surprised to see Cookie was the main one in your vid! (I just read your livebearer thread so remember the names!) When I put my hands in to do tank maintenance, they gobble at my hands which feels like a weird tickling, but when there's actual food in my hands, they're so precise in taking the worms, it's so cute. 
One of the more enjoyable parts of fish keeping! I love that my fish respond to me tapping the top of the glass at feeding times and happily swim into the middle of my open palm to be fed. So enjoyable! Great shots too!

That is very cool. I can hand feed my shrimp. (Which isn’t that big of an accomplishment, but I love my little cherries. )

Yes... their pinchers do really hurt!
(I catch wild ones in my small creek all the time - they are fun little creatures.)
