LOL... begging usually consists of swimming to the side of the tank closest to you (aka the food source) and swimming frantically against the glass.

Jen, caught a great aerial shot of her two RES doing it a while ago. Look at the 7th and 8th pics in this post: http://www.redearslider.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4450

That's what my Zeke does, ANYTIME I go near his tank! I thought he was 'begging'.
