I found a 3" red belly in a dark part of my sump just now! If forgot about him for like 3 months! I put him in when he was about 1/4 of an inch TINY! He some how survived all this time. He's hungry! Takin pellets already.

Lol the recent 3" red I bought was also found in the previous owner's submersible filter... His shoal grew up to 5-6" and this one some how survived in the filter for 2-3months.. WOW. Now in my tank, she is the most active and always the first to eat. I love boo!
 
hes like the underdog...the little engine that never could...born again!
 
I didn't know that Pirahna could be trained onto pellets.I'm guessing being in the sump and starving played a part in that?

Any fish can be pellet trained. And the thing is somehow he was eating because I put him in there when he was seriously a a size of a feeder guppy baby.
