Clownfish Terror!
 

Anyone else get attacked by their clownfish and repeatedly bitten when they put their hands in their tank? It just started doing this, never has before... Any advice?!

Yes, my advise is, don't put your hands in the tank:mrgreen:

clowns are territorial and evil and in my case have a habit of flying out of the tank at my face.. wear gloves fro your hands if they are biting your arms use the long gloves or get used to the bites.. and remind yourself that they look cute and thats why you put up with it

On the next Maury "Attack of the killer clownfish!!!"


Sorry, I couldn't resist. So far(*knocks on wood*) my clowns are pretty easy going!

Mine pulled a 360 into a terror clown fish after I removed their favorite rock from the tank.

Welcome to the club.. they can & will bite any time you put your hand in the tank

Mine do that when I get near their nem, it doesn't hurt but it is bit startling.

I have been wearing gloves and you know what? He goes for the couple of inches of exposed skin from my wrist up. I have noticed he doesn't even pay any attention to me if I go in with my red gloves... Weird! It doesn't hurt (unless he gets a good one) but yes it definitely startles you if he sneaks up on you! I guess at least I am not alone...

are nasty little buggers! my maroon goes for the flesh right between my fingers. to the point that i tried to sell him! when i finally got him out of my tank i put him in a time out tank. he never sold. i missed him so much i ended up putting him back in the DT. they are so cute arnt they..... am starting to remember again why i took him out in the first place!! he keeps my yellow tang in check tho. without him my pink/blue spotted goby gets his ass kicked.
