Gamby Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I have an IM Fusion 10 tank with the only fish being a garden variety clown fish. Lately any time I stick my hand into the tank for some maintenance I get attacked. Has this happened to anyone else? Is this normal? Link to comment
SeventyTimes7 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Yeah they are a pretty territorial fish Link to comment
Gamby Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 It's a good thing that he does not have teeth or I might not have a hand! Link to comment
magikarp Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Happened to me all the time, hates the glass cleaner too, goes after it hard Link to comment
arashsheikhpoor Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 yes happened all the time. My policy is, Once they attack the hand that feeds them, they are on their way out. Link to comment
Mojado Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 I was turkey basting rocks when he (as usual) attacked me. I heard a splash (he broke water) and then I didn't see him anymore. I looked around the tank and nothing. So I go turn on the lights in the room and there he is . . on the carpet. So I kneeled down and said, "See, that's what you get, MFer. Not so tough now, huh?". Then I put him back in. Thought he would have learned his lesson, but he's still an @sshole. Link to comment
Cencalfishguy56 Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Mine playfully nibble at my hand never had them bite mine or attack it yet that is lol Link to comment
ProtectDa2nd Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Mine actually goes nuts when ever I put my hand in the tank. I can close my hand and make a hole and the clown will try and swim into my hand and rubs against my fist like it wants to host lol. Never attacked! Link to comment
