Today i was feeding my fish their faveourite meal a pot containing, Mussle, prawn, squid cockle ETC... and as all of my fish are big i have been trying to hand feed them and i was amazed at how used to me they are. My silver arowana was taking mussles from my hands and some of my larger datinoide. My oscars and snooks were eating loads of prawn. Lungy (my lungfish) was taking food (i don't hand feed due to the risk) and what was the best was that my 16-18" Perruno cat came up and took about 5 or 6 hole mussle by hand and was hungry for more. Experiences like this make the hobby even more enjoyable. |

All mine and hand tame too, difference is they scare me and I have to feed them from tongs. They reconise me over other people and get excited, its cool. |

thats quite an eclectic collection jake , i have been bitten by my aro twice and i have a 7 inch rtc that gets a hold of your finger and wont let go ,used to scare my fiancee but she got used to him now, your tyre track sounds like a grumpy begger |

we have a 18 inch rtc that hand feeds always, you are guaranteed to get wet feeding her she slaps her barbel up and out the water gets me in the gob when i dont pay attention |

It gives me a means of calming down after a stressful day so I don't vent my anger against anyone.
Thats what the hobby does for me. |
