Skittles my Mac has been changing his behaviours lately and been really curious when I have reached into his tank to test temps, freshen up water or set up his plants etc. He cruises over regardless of where he has been hiding so I thought he must be pretty ok with stuff.
I reached in this afternoon and because of the amount of stuff he can grab hold of I quickly grabbed him about half way down. I couldn't look as quick as he spun around and latched onto the top of my finger. His little needle teeth didn't hurt but he did manage to draw a drop of blood but a quick dab with a tissue and it was over with. I have to admit I didn't even flinch for two reasons, it was that quick he was latched on before I could and because I was concentrating on not letting him go so I could have him out for some socialising. I guess it happened because I got complacent and I surprised him.
