When my stingray refused to eat for 2 weeks last year, it was real drama. Everytime i get a ray that wont eat i consider that drama as well.
Recently, i lost a special aro to me. jumped out of its temporary holding tank and found it stiff. I was pissed for a month or 2.

The drama with your mama i can remember. Everytime a beloved fish gets beat up bad by another really stresses the hell out of me. That is drama. LOL

When my full size Buttikoferi jumped out of his bucket! I was moving house, and his tank was the VERY LAST thing to go.. So when he jumped out, I had NOTHING to grab him with! I had to grab him with my bare hands, and throw him back in! It was nuts! This wasn't the first time it had happened either, he also jumped out of a bucket and attacked my face once!! I ducked and he flew over my shoulder, it was intense!
Hands down, my worst fish experience was when my prized (and large) fire eel jumped out of his tank at a IAS fish show (Indianapolis). I recall some women there screaming thinking he was a snake as he writhed around on the floor. 
My friend and I got him back into his tank after a long struggle to keep him moist as he repeatedly eluded our capturing efforts. I had high hopes of winning best of show that year but alas, my eel was scuffed up and only placed 2nd in his class.
On a happy note, my eel, affectionately known as Sparky, went back home to his tank and all of his wounds healed completely. I never took him to a show again.

I lost two red head tapajos because i changed more water than I should have. And it was a rainy season at that time too. The chlorine overload nearly killed my red-neck severum as well.
