Fish Tank Injuries

I missed my step stepping down off a chair, doing the bucket brigade and fractured my jaw.

Ouch! I bet that hurt

I can be pretty stupid at times so I can recall 2 right now easily. First wanted to see what would happen if I touched my electric cat. See stupid on my part, scary too since for like a whole 7 seconds my muscles froze and I couldn't stop touching the cat he had to move off. Lol! Another time I fed a wolffish I had by hand, they're lungers so I should have known better. Didn't even feel it just when I pulled my finger out my finger squirted blood like twice from a basically invisible bite to the naked eye. It was like a bad paper cut small and deep though I don't think it hurt just surprised me. Still I won't try that again.

I was handing feeding my Hoplias malabaricus, "Wolf Fish", when he bit my thumb. His tooth punctured the skin. The reason for handing feeding, he escaped his tank, so I put him in a hopital tank to heal. I believe he was just thanking me.

I should bang my head in the wall for even looking at the pics in time for dinner.

Nothing major. Just few cuts here and there mishandling cracked glass covers.

ive gotten electrocuted a number of times. ive sliced open my finger on a piece of broken glass. for the most part, ive been pretty lucky.

If you were electrocuted, you'd be dead. Just sayin'.

Hey injures are injures, but I think the poster who fractured his jaw wins

I used to hand feed my pacu, but now his mouth is the size of my finger and I have no desire to get bit.

I still feel stupid for cutting my hand, but it is mostly healed - just another story about my fish now

Me and my brother in law where moving a full 39 gallon tank (we were idiots and didnt feel like emptying it) and when we sat it down it took off my index finger's nail.
