Today my wrasse nearly killed itself again. Every time I walk by the tank in my high-vis shirts for work, it freaks out.

It got so spooked it started to smash itself against the lid of my tank over and over until it wedged the lip of it open and managed to fling itself onto the tile.

This only happens when I wear high-vis, poor guy. Anyone else have fish scared of specific colours?
 
Wow....at least you can take precautions to avoid doing that now! That's crazy!
