whats the worst pinch, bite u ever had

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i didnt care and it was the back end so i was safe not lol
 
I've had a few bream put spines in my hand while fishing. I've been pinched by a rock crab (that really hurt). And to top if off, I got nibbled on by a moray (or other eel) while reaching into a hole for a lobster.
 
i got grabbed by a geometric eel (some sort of moray) hurt like a ***** and got infected. and i got my pinky munched by a 12" titan trigger. took a chunk and startled me so bad i ripped my arm out of the tank so fast that on the way out i took out a customer standing behind me. luckily he was a regular and laughed it off. he figured since i was bleeding that i must have gotten the worse end of the deal. truthfully i hit him hard. he hit the ground and got up all wobbly. i actually bruised my elbow in the process. and i dont know if this counts, but i had a gigantic long spine Diadema urchin and happened to be cleaning the tank which also contained a large lionfish. well iwas so concerned with looking out for the lion that i happened to take a big chunck of spine through the webbing between my thumb and index finger. OUCH!!!! worse than either fish bite, and it made me all noxious(spelling?). anyway watch out for your urchins
 
Never anything really bad in a fish tank, catfish fins, nips from small piranha and crayfish.
 
I got caught by an 8" Queen Trigger a few days ago. I had my hand in the tank while talking to a customer, thinking nothing of it. All of a sudden, I hear a splash and the lady put her hand over her mouth. The aftermath? Broken fingernail and a small chunk of flesh missing. Hey, I got to sit on the computer in the back and email press releases for the next couple of hours, so it was worth it.
