Completely agree.. especially when they start to associate you being near/in front of the tank with food. Have you ever had Cowfish? They are very dog-like and will greet you whenever you stand in front of the tank. They are easy to hand-feed and my Cowfish will even let me pet him!(though I risk being bitten sometimes when he mistakes my fingers for prawn meat). My other fish seem to have learned this from him too and now I can hand-feed even my most timid tangs and blennies!Image1518587417.046335.thumb.jpg.d7c1648902285b403c53c26019da8b63.jpgImage1518587425.656818.thumb.jpg.af4d7fe2d794ad6d60feae161139f369.jpg
