- I've noticed this too. I started a tank of my own in April of this
- year, which now has three Angelfish as ite prime occupants. The tank is
- in my living room, and near where we usually sit to pay hnomage to the
- idiot box. It seems that every time I look over at the tank while
- sitting there, all three fish are lined up watching me, motionless.
-
- They also watch what's going on in the room rather closely, especially
- when my wife's Parakeets are out -- the birds sit on the ledge
- next to the tank and watch the fish, while the fish (nearly as large
- as the birds now) watch the birds. It's funny to watch.
-
- ObQuestion : Can anyone recommend a good book on Angelfish, especially
- with regard to behavior?
