I found a cool little ceramic house at a thrift store and decided to throw it in in my tank, so i toook it home and broke the door and the back door so the fishees could get in and out, but when i broke it it left a few sharps edges.

I went ahead and put it in with the sharp edges cause the guy at the fish store said it would be no big deal, but I figured i'd ask.

Do you think my fish will cut themselves on the sharp edges?
 
It's entirely possible that they'll hurt themselves on it, and I certainly wouldn't feel comfortable doing it myself. If you have some way to grind the edges down, you should be fine though.
 
just get a screwdriver and scrape it along the sharp edges until they become dull. the sharp edges could certainly harm fish, especially if you have any loaches, plecos, or other bottom dwellers.
