Over Curious, Bit Me Then Sat In My Hand

[lilfishie]

well today was cleaning my boys tank, giving the front a quick scrub and doing a bit, i always just dip me finger in first to see how they react, Blaze just backed off whilst Royal bit me and wouldn't let go, i had to stick my other hand in to distract him. after he let go i gave the tank a quick scrub and rearranged a few bits then sat down with half my hand in the tank in a bowl kind of shape and Royal came and sat in my hand, think he was trying to say sorry anyone else's guy's or girl's done anything like that before? would love to hear about it

My one boy will flare then latch onto my hand if I stick it in the tank to rearrange something. He'll also jump out of the water when I near the tank to feed him.

Bless him! Have not had Wafty long but he will flare at me if I watch the telly instead of his tank next to the sofa! He seems to be a real attention seeker.

Lol that's adorable.

Well my Afia is my resident biter. I've gotten her to take the pellets from my fingers, so now whenever I have my hands in her side, she'll nibble like crazy and my fingers trying to find the imaginary food heh.
My boy Caine has bitten me once, but he was in a very hyper mood and didn't want to wait for me to drop his pellet. He wanted it NOW dangit! lol

i then totally forgot about his bubblenest and destroyed it but this morning there was an even bigger one which makes me feel a lil better.
glad hes not the only one that likes to eat his mummy

My crowntail Smokey will let me hold him in my hand and stroke his fins (I avoid his belly) and he'll settle in calmly.. But my females.. They bite hard, the nasty buggers!
my female Ophelia is housed with ADFs and when I put my hand in to arrange a few things, I thought a bug was biting my arm.. It hurt! I look down and she's assaulting my arm for all she's worth.
