The aro is doing fine--thanks for asking. I'm thinking it might be a blessing in disguise that he flew out and I was there in 5 seconds.

I saw him thrash and it looked really gut wrenching--the strength of beasts this size is really tremendous. The strength of its head and tail pounding on the floor was like a big muscle man punching the floor. But overall, my hope is that somehow this teaches him a lesson and he won't jump out anymore.

His appetite is now back fully to pre-jump days and his bruises are not visible anymore.

i dont think fish have a very big learning curve......otherwise my male dovii would have realized buy now that everytime he beats on his missus.....its followed by a lonely night in the sump tank.:WHOA:

Hehe, you meant they have quite a big learning curve then. Perhaps a never ending curve too :screwy:

We'll see. I think aros are pretty smart. We'll see.
