I had a feeder goldfish exit its tank, and stayed on the floor till it was dried out and kinda stiff, at least a few hours. I thought, its dead, but the pirahnas will still eat it. So i put it in the pirahna tank, and it floated at the top, I left it alone. When I came back after about 15 minutes, it was swimming around the tank. Fear the feeder.

HAHAHA!!!! ownedbykitten! i would like to have this kinda tough fish!!!!!!!!!!!

o wellz, my 2 tiger barbs r the toughest fish on the earth!!!

as some of u know.. i stupidly cracked my old 10gallon tank n forced to move my fish in a 100% uncycled 15 gallon tank. 2 of my tiger barbs survived in a tank wiz super HIGH pH and super hard water ..... which killed 2green tiger barbs, 3 blind cave tetras, a tiger barb and a poor chinese golden algae eater.

I still think that Whitecloud minnows can outlast them all. Any temp, any water, nh, no2, no3, ph, gh, kh you name it.

[/quote]I don't know about that. The feeder goldfish are still my pick. I've had both and the feeders outlasted eveything through my cycle.

Fishboy- I think it would depend on how hard you step down wouldn't it? ;D

Never had a sailfin pleco. I can't find anykind of special pleco just "regular ones". I bet mine is a sail fin though. I will look at the picture on the profiles. I have had mine through all kinds of stuff too. Really bad stuff and he's still alive. ;D
