My TSN Loves a scratch


Saratoga

Recommended Posts

how did u train it?

He is 31/2inches, my 2nd is 27inches.

He would always come over looking for food, even when cleaning.... started with a gentle non-agressive touch when cleaning.... it has taken 3 yrs and 2bits / 1 dislocated finger later. My 2nd TSN isnt so keen but is starting not to freak out when I want to scratch him as well.

..... but also like all fish that want to dominate a tank, I never let him chase me out of his tank.. if he showed aggression when cleaning or such, I would chase him all over till he was almost freaking out, then leave him alone for 30 mins go back and dangle my hand/fist and tap the glass in a very slow and calm manner. He soon learned I was either cleaning (leave me alone) or I was there to feed him (me leave him alone) or... I was tapping on the glass till he came over.... a combination of all the above and a fair bit of patience :hug:
