I haven't had any fish bite me, but i do have small fish such as swordtails and guppys because i only have a 20 gal. tank, but sometimes i do stick my finger in the tank and they chew on my finger but it tickles more than anything, but i haven't had it draw blood

My medium angels bit me the other day... I think the largest of my angels is the stupidest. He kept biting at one particular freckle while I was doing a water change... One of the other angels tried to eat it once, and then realized it wasn't very tasty.

Of course, that probably isn't what you mean, but they are cichlids and they did bite me :).

my convicts have bit me quite a few times...but they didnt draw any blood. my oscar used to try to bite me like everytime i fed him, and hes even tried to jump out of the tank and bite my face, but he was never successful in biting me. i dont want him to bite me, so i just drop his food in the back of the lid where theres the opening for the filter now :p

My male convict has nipped at me once, when there were fry in there, so, any time there's fry, I be sure not to stick my arm in there..( stuck a algae sponge in there before, and he took a big bite out of it! :eek: )
