wow for real? i never thought they could be kept in aquarium no mater how big


I'm pretty sure he's talkin about JAWS
and I would have to say the most dangerouse critter in an aquarium would be a firece snake of australia or conefish
 
plenty of common fish are pretty dangerous, a bite from a big moray isn't pleasant, though not life threatening

well i guess the blue ring otci wins! though, if you put my mother in law in the tank, she would give it a run for its money.

i agree, did anyone see that video on here of the diver teasing the moray with hotdogs and it took off his thumb? and he had it reattached.
morays are commonly kept so this could become a real nightmare to many fishkeepers.

im not gonne say blue ringed again cause everyone is. surely there is something that beats it...
a ninja in a tank?

lol. the documentry was called oceans in glass. it was behind the scenes at monterey bay.
and the fierce snake aka the inland taipan is a land dwelling snake. and do you mean cone shell aka cone snail?
 
My vote goes to the Great Whites that have been kept in Monterey Bay Aquarium.

watch out, they'll kick your butt.


Curious if anybody has actually been killed by one of their wet pets before. Quick google search mostly pulls up snakes and spiders as the leading "tank killers", but I can't find anything about fish or such killing people.
 
i would imagine that a lion/scorpion fish has killed someone. they are such common venomous species that someone is bound to have been stung and is allergic to the venom.
