That`s exactly how I got it from my Foxface. Had been feeding him by hand for months. One day I was doing some re-arranging in the tank and felt something at my arm. The Foxface was nibbling on the hair on my arm. Of course I flinched and pulled my arm away just as he was moving in the same direction. BINGO! Got Me! And it hurt like hell. Just like a wasp sting. Not much swelling though, and pain was pretty much gone in a few hours. Not as bad as your Lionfish sting but never-the-less bad enough to keep my eye on the little bugger after that.
