found mandarin dead on floor

[bglegs]

Has anyone ever heard of a mandarin jumping out.I thought it had died overnight and cuc got to him.

How long has he been out? or did u dispose of him already?
i was reading a thread where people have had luck with fish jumping, not being noticed for hrs, but then placed back in the tank and coming back... worth a shot

Were they lungfish? :lol:

You should assume that all fish jump. In the case of a mandarin, it is possible it was being harassed. What else is in the tank?

It was out of the water for hours and survived? How is that remotely possible?

my friend had his jump as well. i couldnt believe it when i heard it from him but i then read of other people who had the same thing happen to theres. after having alot of fish jump in the past i now keep a lid on my tank no matter what fish i am keeping. i think that all fish should be considered jumpers. i have heard of many different fish jumping that i never would have thought would jump.

I have a lid on now.I't happened sometime after the lights went out.The tank is in the basement so I would think it's pretty dark for any harrasing but that's probably what happened.

I have had a mandarin jump. Also had a tang in the tank. I actually had a couple fish jump. Removed the skiddish tang and problem solved.

I had mine in a tank all by himself and found him on the floor when I woke up in the morning. No chance for him though, was hard as a rock.
