    sounds like i got lucky for once! i'm really surprised at this. mine hangs out with my foxface all day and they pick at rocks together. they're the best of friends. he was the first one to eat from my hand to.

    Yeah, most of the time the yellow, hippo and foxface hang out together. But then the hippo will get a copepod up his ___ and simply go nuts throughout the tank. He's also figured out how to pick up shells, he'll carry them a bit and then drop them, -usually on a softie of some sort, making them retract.

    Mine is very funny, he came tiny a year ago and he love to imitate other fishs, for example the sixline, he start chasing him all over the tank doing the exact same movments the sixline make.

    My Hippo was great. Didn't spend a lot of time hidding and played well with others including a yellow tang, maroon clown, christmas wrasse, percula clown, and a yellow tail damsel (in a 120g)
