My husband and I were diving at Venice Public Beach today and he was bitten by an aggressive little fish. We thought this fish was cute at first because it was so "friendly". It kept swimming close to us and actually let us touch it. Then, all of a sudden, it swam quickly up to my husband's face and took a little chunk out of his lip. It was a nastly little bite that bled for about 5 or 10 minutes and made his lip swell up. I have heard about these little fish trying to bite diver's fingers. It was about 6 inches long and almost looked like a miniature parrot fish, but lighter in color, with predominantly pink coloring. It had tiny little stripes along it's body. Mostly pink, with some yellow mixed in. We are just curious what type of fish this is that likes to bite unsuspecting divers . Does any one know?
