Crabs...social??

There are only 2 "aquarium sized" fish that really scare me. The
Scorpionfish has dozens of sharp spines, and is highly venomous. Less than
10 percent of people stung survive.

The other is a tiny parasitic fish that lives in the Amazon basin. After the
eggs are fertilized, the female finds a mammal ( a cow, dog, human, etc. ).
She then swims up the unfortunate mammal's urinary tract, and lays hundreds
of eggs inside. The victim releases fry every time it urinates for the 2 to
4 weeks it takes to die in agony from secondary infections.

Anyone else scared of fish they keep, or just me?
