how can fish just vanish?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I would start looking under couches and areas like that, where they could jump to ground but still flop to cover.
 
If you have any ornaments, check them. I lost a small plec in a two foot tank years ago; turned out he swam in a large shell thing and trapped himself. Was a mystery for ages lol

That must have been really messy once you found it.
 
just realized I have a super cute 8 inch albino birchir could he have eaten them? they would be half his length so he would gobble 3 in a day? Ive never seen him go for another fish but look at this video

any idea on the species? I just don't get how he would catch them they are ROCKET GARS also there is a ruby shark in there that is the same size as the gars the poly did not touch??? ever lived together long time makes no sense?

hes so well fed blood worms black worms everything he eats

If you removed the shell from the tank I bet that mess stunk to the heavens above.

It's going back a few years now lol, I think I was more horrified than anything else to notice; especially given that it fell out onto my hand :/

There have been a few "scarring" incidents in the formative fishkeeping years lol
