TigerAngel Fish Addict Posts: 522 Registered: 22-Feb-2004 | girlunderrainbow: They are so lovely. Mine change colour. When it is on the glass or back wall it is darker than when it is on the gravel. When it is on the gravel, you can hardly find it. It blends in so well. And have you noticed the tiny little fins on their backs. My hubby and I just noticed them the other day when we saw it swimming across the bottom, and boy can they move fast. In a blink of an eye. One minute you see it and then gone, faster than my BN.] Of late when I've been cleaning the tank, I have noticed it getting more friendlier. Coming closer and not swimming away. Hopefully one day I will be able to actually have it swim to me. Someone on this forum mentioned that hers come to her when feeding and they suck on her fingers. She posted a picture and after seeing it, it made me go out and get one. I hear they do better in shoals. At the monment I have only one, and it seems to be happy enough.
