Have your been stung badly by something in your aquarium? i bought some live rock and some of it was covered by encrusting fire coral, ate me up! I started growing my own live rock after than one.

Yes and lol at this one a YTBD (yellow tail blue damsel) Whenever I am doing something with my arm in his tank and I go past hole he attacks me and keeps following my arm. If I am away from his hole he stalks me lol.

Have you ever almost yelled at a LFS for keeping a large fish in too small of a tank?


YES it was an ~20'' stars and stripes puffer in like a 20 gallon tank

let's try following the rule now, people..

have you ever tasted skimmate?
 
i actually just loled at your last question, BG
the temptation is strong, whenever i clean out my collection cup, but no.
have you ever had a fish eat/attack another one after weeks/months of happy coexistence?

yes i had an oscar, jag and GT in my 125 gallon along with another smaller oscar that was the newbie, there for 2 months. then i threw my back out and didnt feed for 2 days, and well, little oz became lunch!

have you ever had your in-laws entertain the children by putting their hands above the fish tank with the lid open saying "im gonna catch the fish", only to learn that their hand dont have to be in the water for the "fish to catch you"?
(that was hillarious!!!)
 
Yes, but that was with my arowana in my FW system....never had that problem with any fish in my SW system.
Have you ever had a large fish die and kept the skeletal structure because it looked cool?!
 
No I can't say I have, although when my eel goes (which will be a long while) I think I'll keep the skeleton of it because that would just look so cool and could be used for educational purposes.

LOL Yea I have a big ol puffer and Trigger that now hang from the ceiling in my living room near the nursery tanks. My cousin was over last night and she was like "I just thought about something.. You know, having those two hanging in plain view of your nursery tanks probably isn't too comforting to your babies!" I laughed my *$$ off when she said that because she has a point and I had never thought about it that way! :ROFL:

Have you ever "Taught" you fish to do something really cool (like especially with feeding) and then wanted to show someone else, only to have your fish make a donkey out of you in front of them and refuse to do it....... and then do it again the next time, when no one else was there!? LOL
 
Yes, not just with fish either.....:irked:

Ever been transferring fish from one tank to another in a container on the floor while catching other fish and then have your dogs come up and grab the F*ing fish and run off with it!!!:irked: :swear:I HAVE!:swear:
 
can't say i have, he eats his own :barf: but refuses fish, thank god :D

have you ever set up a tank in the winter-time, only to find out it get's too hot come summer?
this is happening to me
