My teenager puffer

Post by puffernuke »

So the other day, my FW crab attacked one of my fish, so i put him in the GSP tank. Upon eating him, ralphie the larger one started playing with him in my powerhead, I got a net and retrieved the crab, and ralphie's belly turned gray and he came to the front of the tank and flared his fins. I gave him a dirty look but he just kept doing it. Finally, i shook the net at him and he went and hid in his "room", he pouted there until i gave in and gave him a snail. after looking back on this i realized that i really NEED A LIFE!!!!! Has anyone else had experiences with sassy fish?

LOL..Do you really want people to answer the poll
While I may think you need a life beside fish, I feel the same way (meaning I need a life too)
My F8s are not so much sassy as bossy..come to the front when I enter the room and if I happen to ignore them, they splash at the surface to get my attention..once they have been fed or have their fill of their pet human they go about their business

At work, it was always a conversation stopper when I was asked casually about my hobbies... "Gardening, kiting, aquariums, and reading/writing" did not seem that strange to me, but follow-up questions were the killers. "How many tanks?" made me want to lie. "How many kites and what kinds?" was if anything worse. You could see the classification on people's faces - "Robert is a nutcase..." When folks had the nerve to ask about costs, nobody believed that tanks are cheaper than books.

Just curious, the poll says 58% say yes, and 41% say no, but 58+41=99. but on a positive note I am making a strong comeback. :)

1% of us are either undecided, or we lie and the poll knows better and is building in a margin of error in the rounding fields :lol:
