Do your fish yawn?

haha my cichlids do it it kinda looks like a sneeze. THeir eyes bug out their mouth stretches agape, and the fin down their back stands up like a colorful mohawk.

Ive often wondered if they are sipping when doing this. (either water or air)
Interesting creatures

ps Cichlids Own You. ;)

Perhaps your fish are up all night rearranging the tank like Raechal's Plec!!

Ugh, my goldfish rearrange rocks at night....it's very annoying. You can here them picking in them, moving them and spitting them at the tank walls at night...Maybe they are planning an escape and are using the little platies as a cute distraction!


:blink: :blink: It's a conspiracy!!! :blink: :blink:
 
When Martha yawns, her top lip curls back so far that it covers her eyes and exposes her formidable 'beak'.
It's really quite unsettling to watch. :crazy:

Ever seen a puffer yawn?


The most cutest thing I have ever seen a fish do. And I am totally convinced that they yawn because like people, they get bored or tired sometimes.

Martha is a large Fahaka Pufferfish.
