hey everyone i thought i was going to die last night i got stung by my dwarf lion fish it felt like a hornet stung me man it hurt thank god thats all that happened lol he fids real well
you are supposed to put it under hot water, the hottest you can stand without actually cooking your hand. The heat neutralizes the venom. Even thou the venom stings and burns under no circumstances keep it under cold water.
Good to know you are OK.
Your lucky it was a dwarf, and not a fully grown volitan. I wanted to cut off my hand when my old guy got me.
Nothing helped the pain, so obviously it did not feel like a bee sting.
Anyway, back then I was told by Mr.Young (who use to have an LFS in Queens on Woodhaven Blvd.) to make sure my Tetanus Vacc. was up to date. I checked with my doctor and I was up to date.
i didnt go to the dr ,it just felt like a bee sting for about an hour ,ho crazywould it be if i was hospetailized from a fish in my tank i will try and get a pic of him well the good thing is i got him eating frozzen krill
