Nasty Little Brevis!

[rossyboy]

Just decided to move some shells around in my tank, and oooh lol the little Brevis' didnt like it one bit, they started attacking my hand haha

Obviously not big enough to actually bite me but they had a good go! Safe to say i left those 3 shells where they were!!!

Any1 else seen this type of behaviour?

they probably have eggs or fry in the shell, hence the reason they wanted you out of their backyard

Last time my hand goes anywhere near that one then haha!

I used to have like a plastic 'grabber' that was handy and saved me from putting hands in the tank which i appreciate isn't the cleverist thing to do for a number of reasons.. must buy a new one now i'm under attack from my own fish lol

Ha, my Brevis do the same thing. Well the female from my mated pair does.

Yes they have little tiny teeth on the inside of their mouth. However you are in NO danger. They are much to small to do any type of damage to you.

Well thanks, But yer i'll avoid them still coz they make me jump when they do it, they hide in the rocks and fly out really fast so i panic and water goes everywhere haha

Never thought i'd be scared of a fish no bigger than an inch lol!
