How popular are you with your fish?

[Chessmanmark]

I am VERY popular with my fish. When I walk in the fish room it is ON! The Tangs start strutting, clownfish get jiggy, wrasses start flashing, dottybacks, basslets, cardinal fish, chromis, hawfish. They LOVE me, because I bring the mysis.

But those stuck up gobies and file fish. They lay low. I mean, what did I ever do to them?

They are so snobby. They don’t even come out and exchange greetings. They chill in the shadows, giving me that sketchy glance.

It’s not like that in the fish store. Their file fish and gobies are cordial.

I’m gonna keep working on those guys. We are going to come to terms sooner or later.

Idk, I saw your exit polls, you are down a few clicks with the clown fish.

My melanurus wrasse and orchid dottyback love me. My white tail bristletooth tang isn’t so sure about me and runs away at first. My Bella goby on the other hand just doesn’t give a dang.

In every setup I've had, all of mine came out of their respective hideaways, etc. and frisked about, hoping to get fed whenever I walked into the room and stood in front of the tank.

Hey I’m the food lady. Lots of love here. Lol

 

[StealthJett]

My clowns will dart back at first but when that canopy pops open and the frozen food starts flowing they love me more than anything.

I’m like aquaman to my fish

when i stand near the tank all the fish follow me but thats only because i bring the food i guess im being used

 

[Shon]

I don't think I get much love.

All but a few go to the corner nearest to me. Then I get stared at. They show minimal movement. They still stare as I fill the cup with water, thaw the cubes. As I wait for the thaw, I only get a dead on stare.. then the food goes in and I no longer exist.

I recently purchased one of the magnifying lenses and stuck it on the tank. Suddenly all the clownfish started gathering around to look through it when I sit next to the tank.

My trimma goby used to not mind me, but now he's decided that I'm scary. Whenever I do something too suddenly for his liking, he flees into the rocks. He also hides when I take the lid off, because the shadow scares him, but that's fair enough.

Mine used to love me and weren’t scared but I switch my light schedule a couple days ago and they are now acting skidish

My clownfish used to HATE ME. They were also super timid with feeding. Ever since I started using a turkey baster for feeding they've loved me. Don't know why they changed so fast...

Its not so much popularity but habit with feedings and hopeful feedings by the fish and curiosity

 

[Hincapiej4]

Mine eat out of your hand if you like...just careful with the Foxface!

Wow ! Never saw a clownfish which was a timid feeder ! All the clowns I ever had ate like hogs at the trough....

SCARY ANEOME! MUCH THICKER THAN NORMAL NEMMIE, MUST BE DANGEROUS! I STAY WITH MY NEMMIE!

 

[BlennyTime]

My fish are convinced I work for them! And they aren’t wrong!

 

[Swanky]

My anthias love when I walk up to the tank. The clowns do too, now my wrasse? I have never had such an ornery, skittish little guy. He is super watchful of me, but he CONSTANTLY has the look where he'd shove a coral frag over if I turn my back for too long.
