Ouch!
So yesterday I was doing some routine maintenance, removing some java moss from the filter intake, when one of my kribs swam up and bit me! It was weird, I've never been bit by a fish. It was probably more startling than painful, because it didn't really hurt all that much.. But wow.

I get "Touched by an Oscar" on occasion [If he is grumpy] & he leaves marks that look like bruises from being pinched lol

I had an Oscar latch onto my finger before. I flung it across the room. lol.
arowana bites are not fun. they usually draw blood pretty good, but it's more shocking than painful. happens when handfeeding sometimes. they just get excited and try to take a bit too much. they always immediately let go. just a quick strike.
Thar she blows!!!

I was hand feeding some african cichlids when one of the zebras rammed my fingers. Man that hurt.

I quit cleaning the inside glass on my Texas cichlid tank when they are spawning or taking care of fry because I got tired of being bitten. As Jeffs99dime says, once a cichlid always a cichlid. Just wait till they spawn, that's when they get fierce.

I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
Smaug, you're here a lot just to say it's a waste of your time, poor baby, I bet you don't even know how big a loser you are, and how much we laugh at you and your foolish attempt to give your life meaning. Quit drinking, get a life, go take care of your family, grow up!

My German Blue Rams bit me all the time. Even the dwarves have some spunk.

My oscar thinks elbow skin looks delicious. He goes for it whenever my arm is in the tank.
Nothing will ever prepare you for a wolf fish bite, or a moray eel grabbing your ankle though. Trust me... I know
