If you are into FH, Lucky Aquarium in Baltimore has some first grade FH. Here are some pics I took last week. This Asian store is similar to the former Beltway Aquarium, but a lot cleaner. I bought a few fish from this store (GT, EBA and a H. compressisep), all high grade and healthy.

Ok question
I am not trying to create drama just wondering what CCA folks think.

When they rub up against your hand are they being personable or territorial?

Territorial. Some fish learn that this means food, so they will do it, but I think it's mostly territorial.
 
I don't think it's just territorial. They are just nasty. All mature cichlid are territorial at breeding time, including mild manner angels and discus. But only certain cichlid attack hand at all time, off breeding and without a mate. Keeping FH solo actually makes them more nasty because their only target is people. Keeping FH is a macho thing, like caging a tiger. I don't know of any lady fish keepers interested in FH.

I always thought that the Thai silk FHs were beautiful fish. Tank space and $$ have always been an excuse not to keep one...
