well teeth or "really jagged serrated oral rim substitutes".....it still friggin hurts!
I have been bit 3x by my 2.5' silvers, and at these sizes, believe me...it ain't fun 
Pretty much like getting a slight whack from a hand saw. I'm almost near getting a phobia, even like when I'm standing above the pond and they both come near me and give me this stare, at the back of my mind, I'm thinking this guy is gonna jump and take a whack at my face, take out an eye and make me blind! 
At times, I have to literally grab it gently and angle/guide him away.
Anybody have any ideas on how to "hand" feed these aros, I can't throw in the food, the Pacu will get it before the aros. When I throw food right at their mouths, they thrash and end up missing the fish totally. When I hold it right above them, they end up partially getting my hand.
