Fish that attack their owners.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Been bitten by lots of Oscars, used to tease them above the water to make them jump for food, sometimes they jumped too high and got my hand! (I guess I deserved it!) Worked in a fish shop so i've been bitten by nearly everything available at some point or another! Worst bite yet was a Crenicichla Gaeyi, Nearly took my finger off and really clamped down hard, like a pliers with fins they are!
 
my dads old tiger oscar would bite anything that remotely resembled food
i use to tease him thought his biting was funny

he died when it snowed :( power went out froze to death my dad forgot about him owell prolly better than living where my cheap dad had him ( he was in like a 10 gallon octagonal) he was nearly 6-7 inches he was stunted pretty bad (3 years old)
 
lol sometime i put the tip of my finger in to push down food, well one time i didn't pay attention and my spotted gar bit me :P he isn't too big but it broke skin ! haha
 
my big barred got me one day, but no blood i felt a pinch and looked and he was ready to go for one more lol.
so usually i net him into his pot when i need to move things now haha.

Festae, Texas, Dovii, Midas, Auratus, Red Belly Piranha, Black Piranha, Rainbow Wolf, and of all things..................I was attacked by a 16" Trinadad pleco but the worst bites I've ever recieved came from scuba diving in a lake - I got attacked by a school of hunger Sunfish chewing on my ears.
