Outgoing Fish?

[wendywc]

What fish are outgoing i.e., friendly, curious, and swim up to see you?

Any tetras? Or are rasboras or hatchetfish?
Any input is welcome!

My female angel always comes up to me!!! She'll follow my finger along the tank too.

My male ram comes up to the glass a lot too.

Most of the others s**t themselfs and swim off!!!

puffers are meant to be very interactive

Thanks for the input!

I don't think I'll add angels, rams or puffers to my current tank setup, but that's really good to know for future reference.

oh yeah, forgot to add to not add puffers lol, you could set up a small 5 gallon for a dwarf though

The plec kind of avoids me. I dunno maybe it doesn't like me. The female beta I have always comes to the front of the glass though when ever I come in the room. And she seems to get along fine with all the other fish I have. My dwarf platy is a laugh all the time up and down and swiming vertical, I'd say hes the court jester of the tank.

Yeah, I'd say bettas are very friendly. Livebearers like people too, but I think it's because they want food all the time. If only they didn't reproduce so much for me.

My Brown African Knife is very interactive.

Every time I gravel vac he comes to inspect my work and watches the gravel float in the tube.
