Mental YBS

**Bindi** · 14-04-2008, 03:51 PM

Hi All

My baby YBS go mental when I enter the room, scrabbling for attention which I assume is bacause I'm the one that feeds them. I feed them twice a day with Kings complete, I am wary of giving them too much as I don't want to overfeed them.

Do they all do this? They settle down after 5 minutes or so. Maybe the're just pleased to see me?!

hehe, if they try to scrabbling like going out of water and try to follow you in the water, that means they are expecting their food. However, if you enter the room, and they suddenly swim down or get crazy to knock the tank (mostly at night time or when basking), that means that you just scare them.

Obviously, Bindi's ybs belongs to the former one.
