    I got "whacked" by a pistol once and I had a hard time describing the feeling....until now. Strange sensation ain't it? :)

    I've been bit by a large Clown Trigger while cleaning. He took a little chunk out of my pinky. Not fun. I kept Mr. Net with me when I cleaned the tank after that. One look and he would hide under a rock.

    A Solomon Island Yellow Crater Zoo toxed me when I first got it. A few fingers went a little numb.

    I got stung by live rock too! It was a ton of little white/clear spikey things nestled all nicely into the pointer and thumb on my right hand...what the heck IS THAT? Felt like a thousand shards of glass in my fingers. Also, I got stung by a patch of Fire Coral while diving before...NOT FUN! Not fun at all....
