I had forgotten all about the baby albino Bristle Nose that loretta, eh...fishlady, had given me a few months ago. I think it came from BrownsoutUK, anywho, I was tearing down my 70 show tank for a friend here on the box, and I had placed my emperor 280 on a bucket and set it aside for a few days while I took care of more important things. Last night, I decided to set up the replacement tank where the 70 tall had been and I started to clean out the emperor 280 after 5 or 6 days.
Well, after running hot and cold water both over the emp and all the scrubbin and poking and proding in the HOB, I finally discovered I had a stow a way on the grey media cartridge inside the emperor. That's right, the tiny little bristle nose was inside the emperor. He fell off the cartridge when I pulled it out of the emp, and I was sure he was dead. It had sat in my den for days and then all the hot water and all, I just knew he was toast, well, I went to pick him up and toss him in the trash and the little booger, (who was twice as big now) scurried away from me in the sink. I was finally able to catch him and placed him in my 125 community tank, where he is happy as can be now.
I'll get a picture of the lucky lilttle booger tonight.
