Hmmm right now it would have to be the Vlamingii tang, he just a pig with fins and always bumps into you when your hands are in the tank, the kids pet him all the time. I feed my tank with a blender mush using a turkey baster. it didnt take him long to figure out that if you put the end of the baster in your mouth you get the best bang for his buck, problem is how to get it out of his mouth??? lol
The kids named him big blue

Mike

is there any way you could get a pic of him during feeding time, i would love to see that

Here's my Damsel, he's tough fella, but I like his personality, besides, it's nice to have someone in your tank who will eat all the food you put in there ;) - less work for skimmer (well... at least first processing stage :lol: ).

It's hard to covince him to accept rearange of aquascaping sometime (he'll always add his "finishing touch"), but nobody's perfect, right?

Of course fresh water counts. What kind of fish is Jack? And how did you ever learn that he wants to be in your hand?
Fly n Reef

He is a Erpetoichthys calabaricus AKA Reed fish, rope fish, snake fish.

I feed him earth worms. In order to keep the worms from hidding in the substrait I hold the worms in my hand. He is very very affectionate and will rub my hands and arms like a cat. So after a few months gentle touch lead to holding and picking him up...

this type if fish cannot live outside of water, but they can live up to 3 to 4 hours out of water before they die.
