Ouch, glad you're ok.

Because I'm a DUMB-ASS and because I hand feed most of the fish, and he happens to be one of them that will take it from my fingers.

yes
lance you are a Dumb Ass, lol
if I get stung I will die... and I still had one it ate out of my hand.. too,..

So, therefore you are a bigger DUMB ASS than me.:wink: I don't die, it just hurts like hell.:mrgreen:

Thanks FragNPlug -didn't catch your first name! But it was nice to meet you too! My new foxface has adjusted super well and am happy to have him as a new addition to my tank! Seems to have alot of personality already, confident and swimming with my copperband!

Im sure you will enjoy him, they have great personalities.

I still feed FoxFaceFive (aka: Todd) by hand....along with my other fish....mind you I still feed the snakes by hand too, I don't get tagged very often ;)

I'll risk the sting...untill I get stung...if it's very bad lol just because I like feeding them that way, I feel like they become less scared of my hands in the tank for maintenance that way.

I agree. Mellow fish are happy fish!
