That's just fish being fish. They are simply looking for food. No harm no foul.

particular, I positioned my palms interior the tank lots to rearange the flowers. i do no longer recomend you wash your palms first, the oils on your skin won't harm the fish, yet cleansing soap residue definatly can. Wash your palms afterwards. And be carefull to no longer use lotion till now puttin you palms in. Platies somtimes swim on the backside for short sessions, you should whatch for surprising transformations in habit, notably no longer eating. no rely if it extremely is a woman, it must be pregnant. I do desire to tell you that your tank is extremely overstocked. mollies advance to 6 iches and can be in communities of a minimum of three, in a minimum of a 30 gallon tank. Platties must be in communities of a minimum of three, a 20 gallon is fairly a much greater useful tank length for them. Tetras must be in minimim length colleges of 6, a 20 gallon is the smallest tank the smallest species could be in.

This is normal behavior for the fish they are inquisitive when they see a foreign object plunged into their environment. They may also nip because they are getting a buzz from sodium and other minerals and chemicals on your arm.

Dear gods what a lot of babies.
As for nipping,I doubt it's a big deal. They're just trying to see if you're food. ^_- they'll figure out you're not.
