4 chromis ALL eat out of my hand... so... not too hard to catch if anyone wants all of them for $18.00, or one for $5.00 each.

My GSM clown tends to come up and flick his tail at my hand until he knocks the food off, then all the others come to join in on the winnings... Its like a bunch of kids at a pinata.

my queen trigger did eat out of my hand, and then one day while using a nice shiny razor blade to get the algae off the glass, he latched on to my index finger. I lifted him 3 feet above the tank as I pulled my hand out, he let go and fell into the tank, I was lucky. I was lucky he was being gentle, they could take your finger off. I no longer hand feed triggerfish. I don't even hand feed the dog anymore cause of that!

probably would if i left my hand in the tank long enough. cause my false percs are either going for the food in the tank or fleshy part of my hand between the fingers when there isn't food in the tank.

My fox face will eat out of my hand and let me pet him. Who says fish are not interactive! My cleaner shrimp will too and he will also clean my fingers.

my cleaner shrimp also cleans my fingernails. lol. the only fish i have that wont eat from my hand is the hippo tang, but ive only had him for about 3 weeks. Also, i noticed if i put my face or hand to the glass, they come looking for you like dogs.
