well that's the thing, I don't think he's being aggressive... he opens his mouth and goes in at my hand somewhat slowly, of course I move it, and he stops and continues his business looking around and exploring.

Do I let him bite me? I'd like to avoid this if possible, but if it was a sure shot way to get him to not do it again, then I'll endure it.

It's one of those things, I can see him watch me, and recognize me. Pretty sure he knows it is me who feeds him, gives him water and lets him out of his tank, where in his mind would it be a good idea to try to take a chunk out of me?
