Well, I finally passed a big hurdle ive been trying to bridge for a year now. My big stunk shrimp finally got over it’s shyness. Put my fingers in the water tonight and it came to me to clean my hand. It spent about 5 minutes working under my fingernails. So cool. Took a while, but he finally accepted me.

Yep. I have a new friend. My first tank years ago, I had two that would swim to the surface as soon as I walked up to the tank and wait for me to put my hand in. Great to finally make the bond with this one. Guess I should go buy him (or her) a friend to play with. Fun to watch them spread eggs everywhere.

That’s really cool. Ive got a couple piranhas I’m trying to bond with over here. They’re shy.

That's cool! A little bit annoying though when your actually trying to work in your tank and they won't leave ya alone though! But still loads of fun!

My lightning maroon and mocha bites me. Drew blood several times. Wondering whether I got close to their territory.
I have a pair of Ocellaris, no problems with them, I'm more worried about my Foxface following me around. :astonished-face:

My Timor Wrasse does also, he begs me to turn over rocks, move frags, blow off the rockwork, scrape the glass, anything to stir up bugs.

Same. I watched it a second time tonight. First time I thought it just so, so, but second time I really liked it.
It was about what I expected. The special effects were awesome of course. The acting and story line was worse than expected...but I was watching for the visuals anyways.
