My favourite time of day is feeding time because I get to spend some quality time with this fella and it’s so interactive and fun.

I’m very proud of how well trained he is!! Hopefully with YouTube’s awful compression you can see well enough.




Here is a fun one of Mando noticing the food in front of the glass before feeding

I like to target feed as well with every new fish who needs it. I use a long pipette. Fish are such interesting pets !
Really makes you feel closer to your animals too. Plus, it helps make sure I know that he is getting enough food, his tank mates are much quicker than him and while he grazes on pods I like to keep him well fed.
 
I'm shocked those clowns didn't come over and grab the food, mine certainly would have
 
Can't wait to feed this little fella again today and see what he gets up to this time :face-with-tears-of-joy:
 
Better keep feeding it, many times a day, it looks pretty skinny to me. Awesome you got it to eat out of your "hands" though.
You’re not wrong, he is on the skinny side. He took some time to get eating properly so there’s some catching up to do
 
Neat video!!!
