One night I went to feed my constantly begging oscar. I opened the lid and grabbed the bag of Hikari Bio-gold. My affinity for fish food got the best of me, and I started reading the back of the bag, scanning through the ingredients. The bastard oscar decided he couldn't wait anymore and leaped completely out of the tank, hitting me in the chest and falling on the floor. Scared the crap out of me, sending pellets spewing onto my rug and me scrambling to chase a flopping oscar around my living room. No injury to the fish, I broke his fall. I wouldn't be surprised if he managed to eat a few pellets off the carpet while I was chasing him.

...ha ha.

i know, i got one a little similar. when new people used to come over to my place and want to feed my oscars. i'd tell them to hold some pellets in their hand. they'd always want to feed the cute little red oscar and of course they would wave and hover their hand over the three begging oscars trying to get to the little red.
WHAM! the large tiger would always jump right out of the water and scare the crap outta one of my friends/family. cracks me up every time, every time!
 
lets just say i have a bramuda triangle tank


heres the whole story about 3 months a go i had a baby perch in a tank with about 20 guppies or so and some of my males went missing none of my females went missing only males so i took him out and put him in anouther tank cuz i thought he was eating them turns out he wasnt and i still dont know what happened to them and sometimes my pleco goes missing but turns up a couple hours after i notice his gone

Years ago in my first fishroom I had a few hatchetfish. one day when feeding I noticed I had left the cover off thier tank.And some were missing.I found TWO of them in another tank 7' across the room and 3' HIGHER!!!
Now the thing that really still bakes my noodle was did they make it in one clear jump or did they touch down in the oscar tank halfway across the room?

weiiiiiiiiiiiirrrd!!!

Luckily, the guy at the fish store did not ask HOW the heater was broken LOL

what was I supposed to tell him?

my pacu got spooked by a 'loud noise' LOL

it wasn't really my fault - hard wooden chairs makes sound effects much louder! :)

lol! stop it!! i cant stop laughing i cant breath already!
 
i was trying to catch my fei feng to move to another tank. as many of you know, these things are lightning fast!!! anyways, my arm was about numb from trying to catch this guy, so i pulled the net out of the tank to rest my weary arm. i was watching him dash around the tank, trying to come up with a new game plan...then BOOM!!! he was gone!!! i freak out and start peering around the tank. then feel my net start to shake, so i look down and there he is!!! i swear, it's almost like he teleported into it...i couldn't stop laughing.
