Befriending my Trigger

Yay, I just got my 3" rectangular triggerfish yesterday. He has been really timid of me up until just now. I was sitting in front of my tank, and then i actually got him to follow my hand on the glass. This was amazing considering that earlier today he was nowhere to be seen when someone only walked by. Because of his sudden change of heart, i deceded to give hand feeding a try, and to my great delight, he actually took a peice of diced shrimp from my hand!!! He did this 2 more times!!! But, he still showed fear of my hand; each time, he took a few tries to build up his courage enough before actually took it.

 

awesome!! post a pic of your new trigger! he'll be eatin out of your hand regularly before you know it!

 

Awesome!
Just watch your fingers around it when it grows up

 

just a pic of him or one of him taking food from my hand?

 

anytime you get a new critter, you're supposed to take a pic and post it!!;D just of your fish is cool.

 

He's a looker

 

+1. The rule is "pics or it didn't happen". Without pics, I am not sure you even have a trigger Pics of new additions immediately earn K+ ;D

 

Hey, what do you guys think about me getting a niger trigger of the same size to keep him company?

 

It's really nothin but i just got a few mexican red leg hermits a few hours ago.

 

Very cool looking trigger! +1(or 125)Pack on the karma, spreading the love today!
