    Quite cute, my apistos and angelfishes do that too. If you like handfeeding fishes, try handfeeding a gulper cat or an arapaima if you have the chance to. Quite memorable

    psp1000, not trying to undermine your video, just that your video reminded me of my handfeeding experiences

    Nothing beats experiencing it yourself! Got the chance to do so with a fellow forumer. Honestly it won't be as funny or cool as you think when you see a gulper cat on the verge of swallowing your fingers together with a goldfish, or even worse, an arapaima charging towards your hand... The suction was so great that i nearly fell into the pond together with the feed

    It's actually a good gauge to test if your fishes are comfortable with you. For discus it's important they recognise you when you start to breed them or else if you approach them to clean the tank after they lay eggs or carry fry, the inexperienced ones may eat the eggs/fry.

    It is very good gauge that the fishes are comfortable, steady, and brave. It means they are not stress. Good work psp1000

    Thank for all bros for the comment, of course no one is perfect as we don't live in the perfect world, but having input from all the bros here is always good, cause we learn and live on to make ourself more perfect.

    Thank all...and good day !
