lol, i was ecpexting a story where a damsel caught u off gurd and bit u.. which scared you.. so then you jumped and somehow got hurt.. (broke the tank... fell an hit head... lol) actualy my clownfish attacks me and it catches me off guard... and i normally hit my light... (its a good thing they come with those arylic splash guards..lol)

lol mean little buggers but try that same thing with a large trigger and u will really end up in hospital.

My damsels pretty much panic when I'm in the tank. My blue devil is the biggest and the boldest but he ain't that bold.

When I was in the bahamas though I had a blue with yellow belly damsel attacking me that was guarding her little cave. It would charge out and make a run at me and then go back in her little cave. Pretty funny to watch. I must of sat there for 10 minutes messing with that fish.

is that why the triggers attacked you too?

I do seem to attract Psycho fish out there for some reason. As long as they don't get any bigger then triggers I don't mind.

OK I'm gonna tell you the truth about why the triggers attacked me but it's a little embarressing. I put the unwrapped granolas that i was going to feed the fish with in my pockets and on the way out over the surf to the reef the granolas crumbled. I didn't notice and before I new it I was being bit all over my legs. These things swarmed like a bunch of angry bees. I swam back to shore and they followed about 200ft into about 12" of water. My wife was snorkeling a few feet away from me and was laughting so hard when we got into shore I thought she was gonna hurt herself.
