Honey the Eel

A spotted eel befriends a diver.

Unbelievable... Fish on a whole don't seem to have the ability for this kind of bonding, but that said, growing up, my father had a salt-water fish tank and definitely had a few larger fish (a remora and a puffer fish) who certainly recognized my father (or his hand) as opposed to other members of the family and would allow him to handle them in the tank... it always amazed me.

Not quite as dramatic as this, but it was still amazing to see the puffer fish allow my father to pick him up out of the water and not blow up in to a ball. He would happily swim into my father's hand and wouldn't freak out when taken briefly out of the tank... almost like he was curious.
