Raphael cat, he hides all the time! I wasnt even sure he was still alive until I pulled out I rock as I was doing and water change and found him inside of it. I guess thats where he spends all day and all night. Some life...
 
I bought a bristlenose pleco from a privately owned lfs. Some of the water got into main tank and ICBC killed all my fish BUT the pleco :p
 
I would say Wolf Fish. Just hung out in its cave gaping.....till it would swallow something....Snakeheads, Birchers......My Pike Cichlid.....He was about 11 inches long when I introduced it to 500 foot deep Cayuga Lake. If the 20 lb Lake Trout missed him the Ithaca winter got my revenge......This was 18 years ago!
 
Dalmation Mollies!!!!!
Damn things got sick which killed my fish off first then they died themselves from whatever it was :irked:
 
Fahaka puffer. Most docile fish ever had. It literally sat in his cave or under the sand all day every day. Barely ate even when giving the best foods like live crayfish, crabs, king frozen prawns, mussles, squid you name it.

Gave him a 150g as well and only used a fraction of it. The live crayfish ended up being tank m8s. Lived with a few other community fish and some cichlids and left them alone. When it was time to move him he had no reaction whatsoever .. everything seemed to not bother it ... i think maybe was a zombie puffer
 
striped raphael cat.never seen it so had to dig it out weekly to make sure it was still alive.
 
"Rubber eel".

Technically not a fish (amphibian), but it found its way into my undergravel filter and I barely ever saw it.

To top it all off, it escaped within a month and I found it the next day; dried up and curled up around the bottom of my bedpost!:barf:


Now whenever I see them in my LFS, I don't go down that aisle.
