When you’re sorting the tank filters and a big boye wants cuddles.
“Gotta make sure they are cherished”
Someone with a degree in biology please explain this, is the grouper really cruising for cuddles or are we misinterpreting its behavior?
Because it looks awful cuddly is what I’m saying
Fish are WILDLY intelligent and many are so social that they naturally have social behaviors for interacting with other different species as a whole reef-wide community!! When it comes to interaction with humans, many fish can learn to recognize specific humans and increasingly seek attention such as scratches, rubs and simple play behaviors!
@linddzz can you confirm the fishy desire for skritches?
