Whats your best fish story? Here are 2 of mine
Dumbo
Diana and I went to a fish store to pick out a new fish. I've always wanted a blonde naso tang and that is what I was after. 5 Minutes into the store we see a bunch of week old arrivals and 1 fish in Particular. A plain regular Naso tang about the size of my Pinky. It was pasted to the side of a power head but seemed to be able to get away at will and then swim back and get pasted on it again. I thought it was dead and so did the store owner. Diana watched this fish for 20 minutes repeat the same procedure then demanded to own it. Dumbo went home and was one of the most peaceful fish. One day Diana called me and told me that she thinks dumbo wants to die. Apparently she has been putting a sheet of Nori into the tank and Dumbo swims into it and allows himself to be wrapped up like a sushi roll. Dumbo continued to sleep stuck to power heads for almost 4 years when he got too big for my 90. He was given to a 600gal tank owner who drove from Virginia to get him.
Lovers Quarrel
On one of our first visits to Aq Obsession we saw 3 beautiful clown fish that seemed to have a lot of personality. I purchased two and before we could merge back onto the parkway Diana made me go back and purchase the third one so "it wouldn't be alone." -_- She named them Romeo,Juliet, and because I have a dirty mind I named the third one Breeolso - (yeah like that one). Well Romeo and Juliet packed together and soon made a home On one side of the tank. Breeolso went to the frogspawn on the other side. Soon Juliet started laying eggs. Diana calls me sad as I'm omw home to tell me that Romeo was dead. O_O!! I went home and found romeo bruised and battered with nipped fins dead In the corner. I quickly located Juliet and shes over with Breeolso. Breeolso has EGGS at the bottom of her frogspawn! A quick check and ... omg.. SO DOES JULIET!... Looks like Romeo knocked up both of them and they found out and killed him then turned lesbian.
I got tons of these
Blue devil that claimed an overflow as his home
A fairy Wrasse that Jumped out of the tank bounced off the wall and lived in the sump.
Catching a lunar wrasse with a hook.
Firefish that jumped in Diana's Hair
4 Crabs that crawled out the sump and ran across the floor
Crispy wrasse in my light fixture.
