My fish almost killed me ;-;

So here I am moving my fish into my new 3000 gallon aquarium. However, I have a specific fish, that can kill you. Well, I went down to scoop it up with a net, and it lunges at my arm, which isn't common because it doesn't usually "attack" people, but this one did, and it almost caught my hand with its stingers. dis was a stone fish. RIP Aimi if i got stung tho. On another note, I got another fish coming in soon, a northern stargazer. For those who didn't know fish keeping is a big hobby of mine, my family has been raising tons of different fish since before I was born, and I'm starting to take up the business for them.

I'd understand if the fish you got in the aquarium were just a decoration at your house but as a hobby - I'd rather not :hurr:

What kind of fish is it? And shouldnt you bring it back to the dealer if it actually is agressive.?

It's a stonefish.

Oh, god a stonefish lol..

Do stonefish have nasty jaws like a shark

Take pics of the fish

I guarantee the fish has big lips that pucker you to death :D

Why would you have a killer fish and if you knew they attack, why would you use just a net?

Also, doesn't it kill other fish?

Stonefishes look creepy as fuck. Im good.
