uhh that must of hurt, I got stung by my blue hippo tang. I was moving to a new place and I grabbed the hippo my the sides and his spine were fully extended and stung me. Boy does that hurt I couldnt see and stings on my hand but feels horrible.

I'm really glad I came across this thread & revived it... I knew from my experience that the hammer could sting me, but if not for this thread, I probably wouldn't have known my hippo could sting me until he already had. Any other fish besides the foxface & hippo that I should be aware of???
Lmao! Yes a good rule to live by...
Seriously... Did you really get zoa juice in your eye & it made you go blind?

Hmmm, this thread had died a year and a half ago and gets revived with a one-liner. I guess that's one way to get your post count up
Hmmm...Well I revived it so I guess that was directed toward me insinuating that this is all about post counts for me? If you had read my entire first post on this thread (which was much more than a one liner) you would see that I found this thread while google searching "hammer coral stung me" because it had just happened to me & I didn't know it was possible before... I have enjoyed reading & participating in this thread ever since I first started reading it & I'm wondering who is really trying to get your post count up since your post had nothing to do with this thread at all, but instead was just making a dig at someone who actually was participating in the thread topic... Way to welcome someone to Reef Central!

Bullet. I am glad you defended yourself. I actually thought the same thing. I didn't think you had a one line opening either. Some folks actually like to get on here and say mean things to others.
Like I said. Good for you! Welcome to reef central. I hope that You Will find more people that like to help and converse rather than the other option.

Yeah, I'm usually pretty careful washing up but must had some on my hands and rubbed my eyes. My vision started getting hazy to where I felt like I had cotton gauze over my eyes. My wife rushed me to the eye doctor and they gave me antibiotic that cleared up within 24 hours.

Glad I found this thread. I've cleared my tank of all zoas, palys,and annenomies but still getting bit up really bad. I do have a lot of euphyllia though and now I'm pretty sure they are doing it. I'll do a better job of wearing gloves and keep clear of my euphyllia best I can and see if that fixes the problem.

You need to get that looked at right away!!! like now. Don't wait until it's too late. Then again, 6 years later is probably too late
