Anyone else notice this? If I put my cell screen (on) up to the tank, the fish freak out (run away, etc.). I originally tried this to try to distract my starki with video that would effectively be a mirror, but the effect seems to happen to all the fish and whether or not I use video ("mirror").

They are also very afraid of magnetic magnifying glass viewer (I don't use it because of this).
