Hands in fish tank

i went and read all of her posts, she yaps about helping bettas half the time, she isn't helping anything but causeing more bettas to be brought into petstores. other times she gets defensive when people are concerned about a goldfish in a 10 gal tank.



yeah it may be my first post, but i have been reading posts on this site for over a year. and whether or not i am nice is purely relative.

Why thank you, I think you are quite the quack too .
:Angel:

If you dont like my post, dont read them and dont reply to them.
Its really THAT SIMPLE.

And its not like they are going to stop selling bettas in pet stores..

:rolleyes:
 
If my hands in just hanging out in the tank, my common plecos come for petting, nose lovins, and to suck on my arm. The rhino plec would sit in my palm and suck at it when he was little, but he's gotten shy as he's grown up. My arrow does'nt trust my hands unless I'm holding the gravel vac. He thinks the tube that eats poop and pulls bad water away is facination personified, and can't resist a few very long looks, up and down as it's doing it's work. The rest of the fish in the big tank are just kinda normal. Arm hair is the best play toy for both guppies and endlers. Ladies, find a hairy man, stick his arm in the tank. Watch the fun!

I refuse to put my hands in the bichir tank to see if they are friendly. They love to play follow the finger from the other side of the glass, but they've nipped at the finger though the glass too.
 
SAE run for the hills, lemon tetras are not concerned, neons will not even notice most of the time, female betta I am constantly pushing away so she wont get hurt, she actually likes being petted..lol. Male betta I dont think even knows I a am in there, he tends to hide in the vals all the time, but he is fairly new and may change. Everyone else dont seem to care unless I get too close to them.
 
when I'm cleaning the gravel the neons sometimes tug on my arm hairs... I used to have swordtails that would really go nuts for arm hair.

I hate it when they do that. It tickles, and they always seem to do it when I'm not looking which startles me and makes me jump bumping my head on the hanging light fixture and splashing water all over. :)
 
my gourami will let me hand feed it. As for the rest of them, they are pretty curious. They go crazy when i vacuum, swimming all over the place, trying toget at the crap that the vacuum is sucking up, very excited.
 
I also hand feed my fish, my male betta come right up and rips the blood worm cube away from me, the guppies will come up and pluck at it. Some of the time they dont even notice me.
 
i hand feed my 2 oscars everything but their pellets. so when my hand is in the tank for whatever it may be, their right there hoping its food, then the beg fest begins.
 
hands

I hand feed my red tail catfish, so any time my hands are in the tank he thinks its time to feed every once in a while he will come up and try to swallow my hand. lol.:devil:
