Anyone else able to pet their Clown Trigger?

I have a wrasse that will swim into my hands and I can pet and my sailfin eats right from my fingers. But definitely nothing like your video, that's pretty cool!!

Not to be a downer, but i've always been averse to making contact with my fish because i don't know if it'll mess with their slime coats. Though I understand that is a very healthy looking CT so maybe it'll recover as if nothing happened.

It's a choice nothing wrong with the no touch rule at all

Fish do lose parts of their slime coat all the time through and it does regenerate fairly fast

cool! I have had 4 Clown Triggers spanning over 30 years and have always enjoyed watching them. if you can bring him to the surface following some food, they will actually growl at you....almiost like a dog. I found this with my last one about 5 yerars ago and sometimes regret selling him to go to a reef tank.
