|  Fish w/ 9 lives
Anyone else have a fish that keep beating the odds? I have a Midas Blenny that went MIA in december, my first thought was it is in the back filter chamber (i have a sea clear system II). Couldn't see it when I looked down into it or using a mirror. Well yesterday I decided that I would take out all the rock in the back chamber and look just in case...sure enough there he was, skinny, dirty and slow...put him in the display area and away he went! Better yet, this same fish back in September, he jumped out of my nano where i found him on the floor (I almost stepped on him) scooped him up and threw him back. He went straight to the bottom where he stayed trying hard to breathe. An hour later he was swimming around! Damn fish only has 7 lives left!!  _________ Kimmy

I think he found himself a way into my overflow, into my weir and down into one of the intake pipes... Silly Bugger!!
At least he is alive and you found him!!

I once had a south american dragon fish. That thing was on the floor more than it was in the tank... One time it flopped under the bed, and the wife stepped on it. She thought it was a snake or something.. Luckily she got a paper towel and grabbed it and threw it back in the tank... It cheated death more than once.... | |
