I just discovered that a Volitans Lionfish is similar to those fish you get in the Amazons that squirts insects with a jet of water...

I was teasing it and held a piece of shrimp above the water - so my Volitans swam to the surface and started spurting it with water - quite accurate too!

that is great seeing your crew do new and unusual things.


Then did you give him a hug? :D

Nope but I stroked his pectoral fins... Stroking anywhere near his mouth causes him to see my finger as a shrimp and I never make the same mistake twice :)

Sure thing... My Lionfish is the boldest fish on earth. Would not be surprised if he deliberately acts up...
