It only took one nip from this guy for me to learn my lesson! I still have him though...I just really watch him like a hawk when I'm digging around in the tank!:eek1: :eek1: :eek1:
 
my tomato is over five years old and defends his area....he bumb rushes me and will give me a good nip when i do water changes (nothing exteme enough to break skin).......but worst of all i can't add any new frags close to his territory...i find them all knocked over or in the sand in less then one day....frustrating....but that is how it goes
 
mine eat out of my hand for now, hopefully they dont change to trying to actually eat my hand :)

They (4 false perculas) don't attack my hand, they go for my elbow of all things.
at least people feel no pain in the elbow:)
 
LOL. Yeah, had a more minor skirmish just this afternoon, was adding a bubblecoral to the tank. Got a couple of nips ( I had to pass my hand directly in front of her "anemones" tp place it.
Tomorrow is water change day, but that usually unnerves her enough that I can work.
I guess gloves are the only REAL solution here as I want my fish to behave as though they were on a wild reef.
