    I want to hear some storys about mean fish. My clarkii clown is getting out of control. I now have to trail my arm with a net when I clean the glass or he will go nuts attacking me. Not much of a bite but when I see something dash across the tank out of the corner of my eye the rabbit fish always crosses my mind. Im starting to consider getting rid of him:(

    thats kind of funny, people see my long spine urchin and are freaked, but he has never *****ed me. But they see the maroon clown and says he looks pretty, but he will be the first to bite.

    Its ironic that the cute little fish from finding nemo that most people associate first with saltwater is one of the most aggressive fish in the hobby.

    The Mean Fish is the average amount of fish in an aquarium.

    My False Perc bites me about 50 times a week when i am doing maintance, I can poke my finger at him and he scurrys away, but as soon as i go back to cleaning he is right back attacking

    My bicolor blennie is notorious for biting me than running off and hiding. Just wait... some day I will have my revenge!

    My ocellaris bites, a lot. A mere finger poking wont slow him down. I need to flick him, or fire a water-energy wave (it's all in the wrist). Leonidas would have been a better name than "Jokey." (my little sisters named him).

    That was funny. K+
