I know you might think I am a complete nutcase but I just wanted to ask you guys whether or not this has ever happened before.

I had a catfish in a tank which died. You know completely up side down, motionless and not breathing. I left it for a day because I had to go to work. When I got home I put the dead fish in a glass of warm water, spun it around for a minute and to my astonishment it came back to life.

I put the fish back in the tank and it lived for about a year!

Maybe he was taking a nap...........

Does it happen to be a Pangasius? Mine appeared to "die" on the way home, then again after acclimation into the tank. Kind of scarey! lol

Why did you decide to put your catfish in warm water? Did you revive your fish this way before?

Maybe he wanted a hot fish sandwich.

Wow I've never heard of this happening before, I'd like to know what's going on.
Was the fish maybe stunned like when birds hit window panes and got up later on?.
