Anyone been bitten by their snakehead?

Just curious. With all those teeth ya figure it wouldnt be too pretty for your finger to be laying in the bottom of the tank....

does it hurt? my gachua hasnt bitten me yet, im pretty careful, but ive stuck my hands in the tank loads of times and as long as hes not hungry then hes fine with it and just sits there.

They're too small for a bite to hurt. Mine are about 6 and 7 inches (approx. i can't get them to hold still infront of the glass for me to measure). Its more of a shock when they bite you. Now whenever my hand are in the tank i expect to get bitten. Not so bad when you are expecting it.

In Malaysia, I have heard many stories of Giant Snakehead owners losing their fingers.
