DANGEROUS FISH?

[Daniel Machado]

FW stingray spine is really mean. Hurts as hell, some are traumatogenic and most "stings" develop into necrosis.
If it's dangerous to the ecosystem, I think snakeheads are number 1.

Best regards.

Candiru...cause it cant get much worse than a peehole related injury.

well, except for maybe a snakehead eye bite/ decapitation.

stingrays arent dangerous, i swam with hundreds of them in grandcayman, they suck on your legs, but you can grab them and stuff, they are about as dangerous as sock puppets

in my opinion there are a lot of dangerous fish... but most of the fish are (dangerous) in self-defense... I had a 36 gallon aquarium.... with a 6" pterois russeli, 4" pterois mombasae, 3" fuzzy dwarf, and a 3" mozambique scorpionfish.... my 150 was cycling... well I had my hands in there reguraly...

I love snakeheads... they are real terrors... but when you look at them.. they have big teeth, the aggression, etc... but I think that a big hoplias would be worse... they have big mouths but with huge teeth.... I mean who would want to mess with this


but I think that atfs, electric eels, wolffish, snakeheads, and a lot of other fish.... But I would never swim with a Big wolffish.... I don't know is is just me or do wolffish look more "built" then snakeheads... don't get me wrong I love snakeheads... but wolves look more muscular... with a bigger mouth.... you know

none of these pics are mine...
