Great pic! He looks like a real character!


I've caught my chromis repeatedly with the little 1/2 cup tupperware thing I use for defrosting food while scooping up water, and all my fish (besides the yellow wrasse) swim freely thru my hands as I like to hand-feed....though I won't try to catch any of the pointy-bitted fish that way!

My crosshatch trigger just does not give a damn, I can put a hand in the tank for cleaning, even swat him away and he still continues to swim beside my hand (not to mention that it has bit me many a time or two, I figure it will really suck when he gets bigger). So it just happen that as I was mounting a frag today I decided to see if I could catch him with my hand and the answer to that is yes, it was quite easy to do.

If a guy was like that, he'd be more interested in other fairy wrasses!

My old CBB was like that. I actually used to "pet" him.

I could catch my Naso, I also pet him sometimes, although I wouldn't try to hold him.
