Weirdest fish deaths

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My recently purchased teacup ray got a sizable chunk taken out of it from my African pike caught it and tried to save it but the inevitable death curl happened... Has anyone else experienced rays getting attacked by mid level swimmers?

Had a Yellow Lab it was feeding time so I put in some New life spectrum floating pellets and left the top open then he went to get the pellet while I was closing the NLS lid and jumped a bit to far and jumped out the tank and hit his head on the floor and died I tried to catch him but I accidentally dropped a full cup of NLS on the floor lol.

I had a gourami that I got with a 80g tank and after 2 months it dashed around the tank then down to the bottom and then straight up hitting the hood. That was game over for him and he seemed so happy and calm before.

Also one time I was cleaning one of my tanks so I had the hood off and I turned my back and my cat went to jump on top of the tank (thinking the hood was still on) splash my male krib that had just had fry with his partner was dead. The cat must of kicked him or just give him a hart attack.
 
Recently. My female tiger oscar smashed into a rock decoration and broke her back... She and her mate were doing the normal oscar mating rituals, same as they've done hundreds of times. I hear a splash, I look over, there she is, floating all bent and with a bit of white something sticking out from her back. Her mate protected her from me and tankmates, he even bit me(he's still depressed). Needless to say she died rather quickly after. I have never heard of a fish breaking its own back... Powerful fish... Still upset about it :(

wow ... what a bummer:(
 
i had a oscar dart downwards and impale itself on a plastic plant a good 5 inches down its gullet. still alive tho
 
I had a crayfish i caught in my creek in my 10g but in two days it disappeared. Found him in the basement (two full staircases down) about a month later. I think he climbed up the filter intake or heater.
