Thanks Leah. He is a lucky little fish. He is the first jumper I have ever had.

Did your fish make it? Glad you are ok....along the back spine of the hippo, when they put their dorsal fin up there are spikes (more like needles). Freshwater perch have these as well and I have been poked.....and let me tell you....its like there is a poison as it hurts like hell for quite some time!!

I am thinking from personal experience that this might be what happened.
