I bought a blueline trigger the other day. He had been moved from one tank in the lfs to another for bullying another trigger. In the new tank he was bullying a clown trigger. Here at home he has been getting along so well with EVERYONE in the tank. He has even blocked a hybrid tang I have from my Niger. However, this brat will look at us through the glass and then attack the glass. Anyone else's trigger hate them lol (jk... but no seriously)

Very common with many triggers (clown, undulated, picasso(, It subsides over several weeks.

He doesn't hate you, he's probably begging for food. I used to have a pinktail that would, when I was in the room, pick up empty clam shells and smack them against the front glass to get my attention. I don't know if I could say that's the same as him liking you, more like he recognizes you as the almighty food giver.

My Clown trigger bites the glass when I put my finger up to it or even wiping down the glass, it just wants food. There just like my dogs!
