On the floor

my 3" african lung jumped out and I found him dried and covered in cat hair and carpet fuzz- put him back in the tank, cleaned off the fuzz, and he was fine. He shed all of the parts that were completely dried out- all his little feet and the end of his tail, but it all grew back. their lungfish- they're designed to survive just about everything....
Glad to hear his ok.
I lost my silver Aro recently...
He jumped out after my brother forgot to close the top after feeding.
Once I had a Fossilis catfish that spent a day (more than 8 hours) on the carpet floor and survived. So I guess the lungfish would be ok.

You're lucky. I have cats and dogs in the house that make sure anything that gets out of the tank, never makes it back to the tank. They probably don't even have time to dry out.
