Many times.
The female Fire Clown gets me quite regularly. My Trigger's bit me twice and the Foxface stung me once.

Oh Yeah, what about urchins.

Very painful, took forever to dig out the spine from my hand.

all my fishes are so timid, they run if I even put my hand over the tank... well, except my neon goby... he tries to "clean" my hand almost every time... nips quite hard sometimes, surprising the hell out of me

Been bitten by several clowns (Maroon, Gold Striped Maroons, and Ocellaris).

Poofie (the Porc. puffer) has also drawn blood when he bit me when I wasn't being careful enough.

Have also been "stung" by a 12" Volitan lionfish (worst pain I've ever experienced in my life). 2 spines full of poison right in the middle finger on my right hand.

On the other hand, I used to hand feed my Snowflake morays, Smooth Horn shark & other fish without incident.
