thank you very much for the information. my dr said he is 98% sure its some infection posible from the turtle i caught for my brother from the local river (he had 3 and i wanted to complete his ninja turtle collection :P ) wich means i probly have selomonella. the reason i suspected the fish is because i got sick hours after handling him, and i puked what looked like a cigarette. my moms been a nurse for 20 years and said its called coffee grains (not realy coffee duh just a slang term for md's) and that it meant i had a GI (gastro intestinal) bleed. agian im sure it was the turtle, and i just want to let people know their are fish to human bacteria that is harmful for you and from now on i will wear gloves and suggest you to do the same. check out the "jack dempsy" i bought from my lfs for 12$'s lol :P its a bad pic but all i can get up for now.

i know for sure that its not a jack dempsey thank though i bought him as a jack dempsey for 12$'s jd's were one of the first fish i've ever owned. neways, yea i waited on the log for 10 minutes after the turtle jumped in the water for him to come back up and then waited for him to blink for me to pounce.
 
always wash your hands after handling turtles...
 
Ouch man be careful glad ure ok now though. Yea and I think that fish is a carpintis.
 
wow wish i was on this morning i was at the doc to (getting an IV)
First thing i thought when i read first post was turtles and salmenella(spelling)

:ROFL::ROFL: I got a vision of you motionless kneeling on a log waiting to "pounce" on a turtle... :ROFL::ROFL:

I'm thinking your brother needs to carry a camera, one of these events could be worth $10,000 :D.
