My LWB doesn't do anything. He will actually sit around near the top or near my hand and not even move (I think he believes he is hidden against the rock)..but my female true percula..damn her!

I can't stand my female Ocellaris! I can never work anywhere in the tank--she would also leap out of the water at my hand. The male is docile and hangs out near the nest but the female--whether they have current clutch of eggs or not--is relentless. I usually catch her in a net and place her in a bucket until I am done. Then i just stare and taunt her!

While my lawnmower Blenny doesn't bite me, my GS Maroon is vicious! He attacks like I rabid dog!!
