I have recently acquired 3 northern diamonds which are 2 and 3yo, and i have found two of them to be quite aggressive. I am not sure if it's cage defensive or food responsive although they calm down considerably when taken out of their quarantine tubs. The previous owner didnt seem to handle them much. One female once I manage to grab her tail and lift her out is fine, but the other female I have a hard time even touching her without her spinning round trying to tag me. I have gotten her out 3 times the past 2 weeks and she seemed fine then, but she is such a hassle to get out. Does anyone have any tips for handling and getting them out of being so aggressive? I don't have a snake hook at the moment which probably doesn't help but I'm hoping to get one in the next week and I am also upgrading them to 4ft tanks once I get some light fittings for them which won't take long.
