Like the title reads, what fish scares your hand out of the tank the fastest? Add pics if ya could

Mines gotta be my ery ery wolf fish, I was just re arranging his floating plant and he jetted at me and prompted a quick pull out of there!

This may change once I get my FATF though! ;)

I don't have any pics but I'd have to say my gsp's were the scariest fish I ever had. They would go after your hand the second it entered the water.

I haven't had one in years but the electric catfish did it for me.Mine was small but it still was able to give me a nice jolt and a healthy amount of respect for them afterwards.
 
Don't have a picture but my dads old red devil. Was a true psycho of a fish, broke thing in the tank, killed anything put with it, and overall glass banger. At the time I was terrified of that thing lol

I know this is dumb but, when I got my silver aro I was so terrified that he would jump out that every time he was on the one side of the tank at feeding time I'd only open the lid on the other side so he wouldn't get startled while I was feeding. Looking back at it I feel really stupid.
 
There's two for me, one is mine and the other was a pet at the lfs I managed. First, the pet at the lfs, it was a huge huge huge very large crab named hamburger! He was named that because he looked like a big hamburger! I had to feed it for a week while the saltwater guy was out and to feed him you got a pair of 9" tongs and a thawed silver side. When you stuck the tongs in the tank he darted out grabbed the tongs and kept coming so he had a couple sets of tongs in the tank before I was done lol, even made me fall back into a bagging table!!! In my fish room the winner is my parachromis Dovii Big Rig! He just wants to kill anything that isn't what he thinks worth being alive! Here's some pics of him!

My undulate trigger for sure. He was a beast at about a foot and tasted everything, including the tattoos on both my arms.

This was before digital pics as well.

They are the true thugs of saltwater.I scored two of them because the store guy accepted them being brought back by different owners more times then he cared to.
