  • This little guy just loves to watch me wherever I am in the room, he'll do anything to get my attention. And when I look at him he flares out his gills and dances from side to side just hoping that I'll come over to play. If I drop food in the aquarium he'll ignore it and hope to play. I have to walk away to get him to go find the food which has floated away by then. That said, in another tank I have a second Blood Parrot Cichlid that loves me but doesn't want to be touched. It's like having one dog and one cat. You just have to love the differences.

      No , he will not kill them. I had one of these fish in a 55 gallon tank with community fish much smaller then it and there were no problems. I named mine Sherbet and gave him or her never knew which it was, and gave Sherbet a house , I just called it Sherbet's house , It was just aquarium decor big enough that could be used as a cave , which they like. If the bottom feeders or algae eaters got into Sherbet's little house he/she just pushed them out. Mine also liked to be touched. Sherbet was no bigger then a 50 cent piece when I got him/her and grew to be as big as this guy's, and lived a very long life. Never ever had any problems with Sherbet harming any of the other fish.

Heck, it's hard to get anything done in the room because he's always acting out to get me to come over to the aquarium. He knows when he's caught my eye and goes nuts swimming and dancing about, puffing his cheeks and gills out to show his enthusiasm. What a personality!

    A long time ago, I changed my view of "animals" in general. I was snorkeling in Hanama Bay, HI, and was mobbed by different fishes in seconds. They were there for the tourist handouts, for sure, but I saw what one would clearly see in any other schooling, flocking, herd animals on land: Intelligence and awareness of each other and of other species. Some were more friendly than others, and some were outright protective of the many small reef sharks that would zip by occasionally. They would be driven off by numbers. Some would simply be curious and would groom the hairs on my arms, swim up close to my mask to look into my eyes. Others tolerated petting and touches.
    No question about it: fish are smart. They live long lives and are social. Why wouldn't they be smart?

      It's actually very common in fish keeping, I think the general public is giving fish less credit than it deserves. A lot of fish are also quite intelligent and can easily recognize their owners and differentiate different humans, and also learn tricks they'll remember their entire lifetime.
      But of course different species of fish have different level of intelligence and consciousness. A wrasse is intelligent enough to have self awareness (there's a lab experiment on this), a cichlid can be affectionate like the fish in the video (which is a parrot cichlid), different betta fish have very strong individual personality, very curious of their surroundings and can easily learn tricks, but sadly most people put these active and intelligent bettas in a vase or a bowl that made them a depressed and inactive stationery floating fish. Other species like tetras and rasbora are more simpler minded and less interactive but their simpler intelligence and instinct are still impressive.

    • @wolfafterdark

      Fish can be easily trained, also. Fish behavior, memory and deduction skills have been tested in laboratories enough to get an idea of their smarts. We now have recording equipment that can detect an incredible variety of vocalizations they make, shedding some light on how they communicate in various social settings. Owners who choose to be involved with their fish often yield astonishing results, teaching them tricks and forming trusting relationships with them. Koi are a famous example.

      Exactly... How do we know the fish doesn't view him as an invader of it's territory and is actively attacking him. It could be rubbish at fighting human hands but slaughter other fish it's size or smaller. Plus I don't see how rubbing it's gills is pleasurable for it. Think about it, humans literally begin to choke to death when any debri touches our airways. Imagine having a giant finger collide with your lungs. I don't think he's permanently hurting the fish but damn dude... I certainly hope the fish enjoys this but I just don't think so.
