This was just too cute I had to share...

Yesterday after work I did a vacuum and water change on my 72gal tank... while vacuuming the tank three of the zebra fish starting trying to attack and bite my arm, within a few seconds I have the zebra fish, most of the barbs (about 7-8) and one of the red-tail sharks all attacking my arm.. I was laughing so hard it toke forever to stop.

The other cute thing they all do is every morning and night when I take out the fish food and walk up to the tank all but a couple of the fish swim right up to the glass, if I move they move. It is one of the weirdest things I have ever seen. They don't do this any other time; I come over to the tank, only at feeding... lol

My mollies do that too, especially my biggest female (she is Queen of the whole tank). My tetras however are the most scared little things ever when my hand goes into the tank.
 
suprisingly, my piranhas are like that. I would have to stick my finger in their mouths for them to bite me.
 
Hey, the mollies in my stepmothers tank would do that too! :)

I really liked that about them, they would literally swim in between your fingers, and nibble at my arm when I would do water changes. I think they started doing it because I would hand feed them frozen blood worms, but mollies probably do it naturally as well after a while.

I just had that experience the other day during water change...my orange balloon bellied molly began to nibble on my arm...I loved it! :)
 
Yeah, mollies are easy to hand feed. They are little beggars as it is so is natural for them to be right at the hood opening, little mouths working eagerly.
