...Frankie.









Frankie is my test fish for the behavioral modification section of Companion Animal. I'm going to be teaching him to come to the surface for food when I tap on the glass.

I've wanted a fish for a while, and this just gave me an excuse to finally go and get one. Frankie is currently in my room, but once he's settled in and used to his new tank, I may move him to the living room so random can also enjoy his fishy fishiness. :3

Would that count as a second trick to teach him.
1. come to surface for food when glass tapped
2. pose for picture when ??

Hahaha, I wish.

I don't think fish can learn "stay."

Well, he's not a shark; pausing movement won't kill him. I've known bettas who would hang motionless for several minutes at a time.

Usually staring balefully out of the glass at another betta. eta: USE A MIRROR!
