Damn!!! Don't know if I can say that...but DAMN!!!!

Our helper knocked on my door trying to wake me up, I shouted WHAAAAT?!!!

She goes..." your aquarium.... there's no water in it...it's gone!" "your fish iare dead!!!"

I said to myself "I hope this is just a bad dream and I'll snap out of it!!!"

But it wasnt a dream!!!! I quickly jumo out of bed put on my shorts and ran to check out what happened.

I saw my aquarium with no water!!!:eek: Foooooook!!!!! I checked out my fish and saw my gar, I thought his gone already but when I grabbed him he started to flip around!!!!

So I grabbed him again and transfered him to the pond! Next was my RTC, I checked out my electric cat... it's alive as well!

Gar is swimming around with the kois and his alright for now...I just hope he doesn't jump out of the pond.

I saw my RTC was just being taken by the current and said to myself she's gone:cry: So I grabbed her out of the water....she was so stiff already and put her back inside the jar while I go run to get my camera... when I got back I took her out of the jar and put her on top of the jar to take a nice pic....then I saw her mouth open like grasping for air!!! I put her back to the pond and placed her near the noozle so running water can pass through her gills!!! Then I just left her in a corner and hoped for the best.

I saw her swim a little but right now she's not moving but her gills are.

I'm not sure if she'll make it:( I wonder why the gar and e-cat survived and my RTC didnt? I sure they all ran out of water the same time:confused:

And she was doing so good!!! Sucks to be me right now:(
 
dude, I am very sorry for your loss. Any idea what may have precipitated it?
 
ohh man thats a nightmare not sure about the E cat but gars can survive out of water for a while not suar about other gars but alligators can gulp air i think some other gars can do this to may be why it survived

What kind of gar is that looks like a spotted/florida but the snout looks a little wide
 
sorry to hear man. I'm glad you caught it in time to save the gar and e-cat. Hope you catch a pretty good deal on another tank too.
