My hand is food lol

I was cleaning out my bettas tank.. and every time I do he constantly follows my hand.

this time I had my thumb rested in one spot on the tank, and he jumped out of the water and tried to nibble it LOL..

I looked at him like "what are you doing?! LOL"

He is so awesome though.. i just got a good laugh out of him trying to eat my thumb like it was a tasty worm haha.

haha yeah... I feel bad though cuz i'm working or at school so he hasn't gotten much affection from me.. but this weekend i don't have much planned so i'll be watching him.. it's funny when I enter the room as zips right to the edge of the glass hehe...

My female is like that now too.. she was shy at first but now she does the same as him..

they are both amazing!

LOL... that is awesome, I love how fearless and playful they are! My Bowie rubs against my hand like a cat when I clean his tank, as if saying, "Pet me! Pet me! Pet me!" -- haha.

LOL.. Yea, they're thinking it's food time and giving you a reminder that they've never eaten in their whole life.

I'm going to have to get a video of my boys doing this....It's so hard when I'm the only one who interacts with the fish lol.....They will seriously follow my finger around the tank and let me pet their heads.....Even the little toddler Zero is doing it......Maybe my fingers smell good? lol Or they like Martinis??
