I have a mated pair of clowns and no matter where i put my hand in the tank the female sneaks up and bites my hand and it scares me everytime. Last time i rearranged some corals she hit me 10 times then the male joined and hit me once.

I have the same issues with my clowns, they always rush in and peck at me with full force when ever my hands are in the tank, water would splash everywhere when I jerk my hand. I got so fed up one day from spilling more water on the ground than my water changed, I cornered them and flicked pretty hard and that taught them a lesson for the day... I never had that kind of aggression with other fish regardless being large angels, tangs and other larger fish.
