He sounds scared. Are you handling him somewhere calm and quiet, or somewhere with lots of activity and movement?
Whenever I take him out I try to keep the area relatively calm and relaxed so that he doesn't feel threatened.

How long have you had him?
Almost 2 years now. He's not always like this but the majority of the time he seems to get this way.

Quote:
How often do "you" handle him?
I've been trying to handle him a few times a month so that he'd be more used to being handled but also trying not to overwhelm him. I know I shouldn't really be scared of him but his reactions to being handled make it harder for me to want to pull him out of his tank without the fear of being struck at.
