This female Dwarf Gourami was born at my home.

It's her habit to spit water at me whenever I open the top panel on the tank.

 
:eek: that is amazing! Never seen that before
 
How cute! She's probably like
"Hey hey hey! No flash photography!"

or
"My tank! Get out *spit spit spit*"
 
Yup they do the same as archer fish in the wild and try and knock insects of low hanging leaves etc. Good recording!
 
Ha that's amazing, never seen them do this before.

Maybe you could train her to be even more of a sharpshooter by dropping some nice food in when she spits :D

The water from her mouth could hit my finger a few inches above the water. I never trained her though, she came up with that habit on her own lol... shortly after she became a young adult.

I dont see her spitting halfway across the room...but meh maybe she can take shooting lessons from my archers? lol


anyways awesome video! Basically you have a mini archer as was mentioned haha
 
LOL no, not quite as good as them ;p but for the same effect :)


Well, the spitting part itself is not that special. What's special = she only does it when I open the top of the tank, and every time !


By the way, what type of corydoras do you have in your picture?
My Peppered Corydoras look way too dirt like. I want something better looking lol.
