How old are they? once a male gets older... and once the females have babies... you can not "pet" them period.

For me they were very tame at first. I thought a lot of people were exagerating with how vicious they were. Then the babies came. If you stick your had ANYWHERE in the tank, the male will charge from clear across the tank to take a giant chuck out of your hand. The females are just as vicious, they just don't charge at you... they look nice and curious till you are within reach, then WHAM!

They will ALL DIE!!!!
