What The Heck Is Bilbo Doing?

[minxfishy]

Bilbo has started doing this weird shaking thing. Takes in a gulp of water, opens the mouth wide and then his whole body shakes!!! Started doing it this morning, no idea why. Does anyone elses Oscar do this? Or has mine just gone loopy?

is it dark when he does this?
when the lights are off in the room and tank lights are on, they see themselves in the glass, as there not as brainy as us, well<me not included>
they think its a rival and try to fend it off, both of mine do this, it is quite funny<it like the running at the glass but obviously cannot get anywhere so looks like a dog waggling his bu@#>, its a little party trick when people pop round, they kill themselves laffing...
should worry

No this was before the lights went on this afternoon, when the lights are on and they can see the sev's in the next door tank its hilarious, they see them, then bolt to the other side of the tank

Hasnt done it in the last couple of hours, just looked really strange, maybe just have a mad five minutes. Are fish like dogs in that they take on their human owners traits
