Wow, this is funny cause i was just thinking about this today. When i had my red tail still in my 55 with my rope fish they lived together like friends. The red tail had taken down 2 needle fish bigger then him and over 40 baby blue gill but for some reason would never eat the smaller rope fish.....Well i guess he wasn't immortal because this morning i found my Guinean bichir with the rope fish sticking out of his mouth.

ive had a cichlid feeder survive a friends frt pond, then proceeded not only to survive but bully my gars in the tank...and has been the happy companion of a common snapping turtle for the last 2 years or so

I had a convict, thought it died, turned off the filter, put it out for 4 days in 50 degree weather, went out to dump the tank and it was swimming around

I don't think it was just the spelling he was talking about... Oregon isn't that bad btw.

I drained and folded an index pool for over a week to discover 3 rosey reds were still alive in tiny amounts of water left in it.

Thats awesome lol......Ive had a pictus catfish which I bought at about 5 inches, whenever I try to take him out of the tank (not using a net) he always ends up jumping and landing on the floor and whenever I have a tank crisis I have to throw him in my other tank with completely different water conditions and he does fine lol. Right now hes just swimming around perfectly fine and he eats EVERYTHING lol.

a friend at work breeds minnows for feeders in his tanks and asked if i wanted some...so i put 15 in with my eye biters and all hell broke loose...fish pieces everywhere...in the mayhem 6 managed to jump behind my aquaterra background over the spray bar...anyways its about 1-4 inches back there with no light...was doing maintenance on tank 3 weeks later and saw them there...got all but one out and threw to the front...well another month later back flushing the filter and low and behold the last one came down the tube into the bucket...the thing lived at least 6 weeks behind BG and god knows how long in filter...he had no color and looked like he was turning albino...but thanks to the messy eaters in front of BG he looked fat and well fed ...well till my male bite him in half

My 5" tiretrack eel jumped out of the tank and landed in a bucket of water over a foot away. He survived in the freezing bucket water for over twenty four hours before I realized he was there.

i'm sure he'd take the cold water over the carpet any day
