saw a youtube video of a guy throwing pieces of bananas in his tank. i dont know if he does this often or just for the video. his fish was going after it though.

i've seen diving vids on youtube feeding fish cheese.

I agree.

I don't understand the people who are so eager to take on fish that'll obviously outgrow their tank and think giving it away is a simple task (unless they have a really good pal with a larger tank just waiting for a rehome project several years down the road)

good point. i think a huge problem in this hobby is that a lot of hobbyists don't treat fish like other pets. this is rarely outspoken but i know a lot of people think that way. giving away a fish is not easy. most LFS aren't going to take a 15" tang simply because they don't have tanks big enough for such a fish, and it's hard for them to sell a fish like that. most hobbyists certainly do not have tanks big enough for such a fish, and even if one does, he most likely is not going to accept the fish since his tank may be overstocked or he doesn't want that fish. i know i wouldn't take someone's fish off his hands, unless i do want that fish.

I have had to give a few big fish away (mostly for aggressive behavior) and its not that easy to find a GOOD home, its real easy to find someone who wants your fish, a lot harder to find an appropriate placement that will meet the fishes needs. I can totally relate to getting attached to ones fish, especially one that been rasied from a little guy.

Yes, my P. imperator is my priority. Whatever keeps him healthy and happy is what is going to happen.

By the way, the cheez whiz thing was not done in an aquarium. I had trained some grey and french angels on it so they would pose for photographic purposes.
