LOL did you try to pet it or something?

Yeah, was cleaning the tank and I moved him back with a scrubber. First time nothing. Second time instant hand cramp, lol.

Very interesting fish, dangerous fish have always been intriguing.
But just a quick question how big of tank would one of these guys need?

depends on how big the specimen is but full grown specimens need a XXL tank
and filtration to follow. they grow 6 ft+ around max.

Not real bad, just a good jolt. But like no control over muscle contraction.

Buy yourself a pair of electrical proof rubber gloves.
