I had about 10 Hikari Foodsticks in my fingers ready to drop them in but he couldn't wait. He jumped up and and snapped my fingers. I jumped back so fast my wife was cracking up!! :irked: It didn't hurt so much physically as it did my pride, lol, after he scared the crap out me. Has anyone else experienced this?
 
Yes, my red did it to me once. It is a 16" . my fingers turn red but no blood and the aro had a little wound on the head.
 
I had my head over the tank while cleaning and mine jumped up and hit me in the eye.
he's 18-19" jardini. He snaps at his food, too.
 
i would stand talking to mates or watch tv leaning my hand on the top of my tank and the next thing WHAM! i nearly soiled myself each time.

so yeah i know what you went through, real dent when everyone is laughing at the guy scared of his own fish, but none of them will put their hands near.
 
my oscars jump up to bite me when I don't hurry up with the food. If I leave food on top of the glass lid, they will jump up and ram the lid thinking they can get it. Very funny.
 
tell ur wife to put her fingers over the tank if she ever laugh @ u about this again, lol it's freakin scary when those monsters go @ ur hand, finger or even ur eye lol haha.
silvers are better jumpers than jars though, my jar tries to jump for his food everytime, he can't jump high enough to reach my fingers. but he did bit me this one time while i was hand feeding my dats...and that hurts, my hand even bleed.
