My Blue Thoat trigger (the one that now lives at the Vancouver Aquarium) got me a few times and my friends a few times. He was very aggressive and drew blood every time. ...and the urchins got me a few times. |

yeah i know but it doesn't try to sting me like some do it just gets greedy and cant wait for the food

None of my fish have ever done more than give me the occasional love-bite, but I've been smacked by my 5" peacock mantis shrimp (O. scyllarus). my finger went numb for half an hour and I suspect those were just warning shots. I don't doubt it could break my finger if it wanted to. Needless to say, I'm much more alert if I'm ever aquascaping these days.

My tomato clown is a very territorial little fish. She bites my fingers any time I get too close to her anemone. She has also bit the pectoral fins short on a volitan lionfish and has taken a bite out of the tail fin of a copper banded butterfly.

bitten oh yeah by lots of different things
In my tank.my female clown always bites me if I get to close.
In the wild I have been bitten on the forearm and have had my nipple mistaken for food while feeding fish. Stepped on a stingray got stung in the ankle worse pain I have ever felt. Kicked a urchin with my heel and spend the next week trying to pick the quills out of my heel, they dont really hurt though, they look a lot worse than they are. |
