Biting Clownfish

[villjr]

Well lets see....you finally get situated in your 'home' and by some chance the 'hand of god' comes in and rearranges everything! Plus your hungry....

I'd bite too! Plus I'd want a mate...

Well he finally got a mate. But to do that I had to get rid of the rowdy neighbors by hunting them down and kicking them out.

My old Melanopus clow used to go to town on my hands whenever I put them in the tank. It would back up to the very back of the tank and take a swimming start to get me sometimes. It got really bad when I added an anemone, then it really became a territorial thing.

I had a pair of Percula clownfish for awhile and they were very peaceful anytime I put my hands in the tank. Then the male died and the female became very aggressive. She would bite me or chase my hand away anytime I got within 2 feet of her or the anemone she hosted in.

Try it with a Lionfish in your tank.... Everytime i put my hand in the tank now, he comes darting towards my hand, I try and be as brave as I can but I heard they hurt pretty bad lol. Most of the time i can swoosh him away but during feeding, he jumps out of the water to get whatever im feeding him lol. Scares the heck out of me sometimes....
