I was cleaning the tank and he came up to my arm and nibbled out something from my arm ! :blink:
 
haha

my dwarf gormies hit me!!! lol was cleaning ther tank and they attack me so now i stay clear of them :) dont bit the hands that feed you they will\lern this 1 day!!!
 
i'm always "attacked". big fish, little fish, doesn't matter. tiger barbs love to attack anything that moves.
 
Well ive had a parrot draw blood before but my new parrots are so timid. My biggest is about 5 inches and if we accidently touch he freaks out which makes me jump and i end up getting splashed!
 
Our Angels and Guppies come up and peck at ur finger or hand if its in the tank! Scared me at first when I was in there changing the filter sponges! But its quite sweet now! Bless em.
 
my honey gourami pecks me, can hardly feel it, but its cute. Also my bumblebee gobies come and stick to my hand if i put it in their tank.
 
I often feed my fish straight from my hand (i feed them a lot of frozne foods, so just hold the cubes in the tank and take them out when the fish have had enough to eat) so my fingers often get nibbled on a lot, my fish also sometimes nibble my arms when i am cleaning the tank and they are getting hungry, although fish like guppys seem to be always hungry lol.
 
ya fish have a strong apetite , they seem to be like chicken , just want to eat and eat :blink:
 
My black neons don;t mind my arm.. but the cleanish python gravel cleaner and they all come up and try to kill it haha
 
I've had a few nibbles, particularly from my golden barbs.
And my flying fox is quite happy to latch onto my hand and suck away, even though there's nothing there for him to eat! It feels lovely!
