That's pretty cool Just make sure you don't have any soap residue or whatever on your hands!

Nearly all my fish will eat out of my hands (except the catfish, lol) It is cool

I'll admit to getting my hands out pretty quickly when the tiger barbs start coming for me though; honestly, if tiger barbs were as big as pirhana, they'd be twice as frightening

That's really cool! Mean the he is not afraid and trust you.
When I put my finger in the tank my betta start to swim around it. He also makes a cute crunch crunch noise while eating.

i think hes awsome my mates puffers had a nibble at my finger once it felt quite wierd then his danios did it aswell

how lovely i often have to wiggle my finger above Polo's food before he will eat it

All of my fish do that. Even my angels. Becomes a bit of a problem when I'm cleaning the gravel and syphoning out the water. They all like to nibble on my arm and have to be careful I don't hit them. Kinda made a rod for my own back.

hahah nice one

Booo none of my fish do this, I tried getting them to eat out my hand and they wouldn't have it and when I'm cleaning the tank they hide as far from me as they can.

I might try and get my Betta to do it now I have him though!

My betta girl makes that crunch crunch noise too! She always knows when I'm going to feed her and what she will get to dinner by the colour of the bottle I'm taking out. If the colour is red or yellow, she doesn't get very impressed at all, but the blue colour is making her really crazy. She knows why......

Jovi actually tried to eat me tonight, he launched at my finger, i don't know who jumped more him or me

 

[tulipa]

Great! So, if you are writing this now, it means that he didn't make it to eat you

 

[lilfishie]

no, he just gave me an awful fright and banged his head

 

[midnight-blue]

awww poor you midnight used to come up and swim round my finger sometimes would take food from me
