Where do you keep buying the hands from?

Ha!

Hope your eye heals quickly! Can we see a pic of this Clown?

 

[Reefbuds]

Wow dude that's incredible. I can totally see this happening. Mine jumped clean out of the tank onto the floor one night trying to follow my hand out of the tank. I hope your eye heals up! Happy cleaning!..

lol as in feeding them from my hand! As in I got some fish food in my fingers and let the fish notice where the food was coming from.

Not actually feeding hands... But more feeding from hand!

My clown use to be defensive near his anemone. But after about a year i think he got use to me. Now its my 3 striped damsel.

Curious thing about this hobby is that we're constantly getting new things to worry about.

 

[Lowstorm]

I'm glad you're okay but...


LOLOLOLOL! I thought it was going to be a 'pulled my hand away, hit the lights, electrocuted myself...' (I did that once. Whoopsie)

Not to disparage the OP but I wonder if the clown really bit him or if his eye was just injured by the impact of its body? Or do clowns have any sharp (or even just stiff) spines in their dorsal or other fins?

I have to say, I've treated a lot of corneal abrasions over the years (I'm an eye doctor), but that one takes the cake! Just be thankful it wasn't a lion fish

Hope it heals well, fortunately I was just barely able to hold on to my scotch.
