so its not as bad as a lion fish' sting?

I just bought a fox face, and hes spooked to hell right now. i may have to dig in the tank and re arange some rocks, but just curious as to how severe the sting would be....

it's like a really bad bee sting... Dont know how it would compare to a lion's though (although Id use the same description for both). Id say it's probably painful enough that rearranging rocks can probably wait until another day when the fish isnt spooked.
