Just as the title states. I was just curious as to the behaiors of your pets.

Boris my JD, now that Tex is gone, is very laid back. He'll just hover in the middle of the tank surveying his little kingdom. He pays Tiny absolutly no mind at all. He used to take pellets from my fingers until the arrival of his mates. Guess he thinks he's too cool for that now.

Tiny my Green Terror is a third of the size of Boris. I tell ya if Tiny was a human child he would be taking Ritulin. This little guy is constantly zipping through the tank. He'll zoom by Boris, stop back up and look at him, then zoom away. It looks as though he's trying to get Boris to play.

Tex my Texas Cichlid (now rehomed) was great. He was always he first at the surface at dinner time and gobbled everything up like it was his last meal. He would hang out at the front of the tank like he was saying "look at me, look at me". While sitting here at my desk he would sit on the side of the tank closest me and watch what I was doing. I have a ton of fake plants in the tank and he left them all alone with the exception of one. No matter where in the tank I would put it, he would find it and uproot it. I have two of the same plants in there but he always went to the same one.
 
Imagine the goofiest, most clumbsy attention-hungry dog you've ever met. My oscar, Aristotle, is exactly like that. He's a big dumb sweetheart who likes to play with his rubber ducky, enthusiastically greets anyone who enters the room, and LOVES food :wub:. He likes my dad a lot because dad always (over)feeds him when I'm not looking. He can be a bit of a grump sometimes, but is never really aggressive.

Marie Antoinette the midas hybrid is constantly busy digging in the sand and re-arranging the tank. She's a little skittish and shy, and thinks Aristotle is her mate. She's your classic workaholic, I guess. ^_^
 
My severum sits and stares at nothing until I enter the room, I've spied on him :p
He knows I have food, so he constantly tries to get my attention, but he does this in a calm and almost dignified way :p

My Uaru and geo however, will actively pace up and down the glass of my tank, thrashing about trying to get me to see them and feed them :rofl:
