What?

I've had dogs and cats that do the same thing.


When you think about it, in the wild, in the ocean, you just don't have the opportunity to see your reflection all that often.

It would probably freak me out too if I had never seen or heard of a mirror before.

Yea whatever. Maybe your pets are breathing in second hand smoke or they're just retarded. Like a said to the other "I read it on the net hobbyist" post a link.

Have you never put a mirror in front of an aggressive fish?

I don't think this is some rare unheard of phenomena.

Putting a mirror in front of your tank to get an aggressive fish to leave others alone and focus on its reflection is a pretty age old trick.

I think most experienced reefers would be well aware of this.

try it next time you have an issue.

You should maybe try to google something yourself before getting all politically incorrect and rude...maybe you yourself should take a look in a mirror.

Yea thanks for the tip there brainy. I've used that trick several times in my many years of experience in this hobby. It does work but I highly doubt it leads to death. I only go by experience and not crap people dream up on the net. And as for being rude, I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine.
