super cardinal !

[eriond]

Last week (25/07/04) while changing water, I must have accidentally sucked one of my cardinal out into the toilet drainage hole. Like most, I have a strainer (those u used to strain hair or any rubbish so as not to choked your drainage hole) and when changing water this week (01/08/04) guess what !??? When I open the strainer, I found a cardinal, struggling n almost drain lying in a pool of water about 1cm high !!! As I was only just starting to change water, that poor fella must have been struggling to stay alive in there for EIGHT whole days !!! Without a second thought, I took the fella and throw it in the main tank. It has plenty of white spots on it but still able to swim ! After water change, I put in ICK medincine n it is STILL ALIVE today n getting well !!! No food n only foul water ???, luckily we don't shower in that toilet only flush water occasionally to clean the floor. Is it super cardinal or what ? Now I am so paranoid n obsessively careful when changin water.

WAHSEH! This is a post 2 years ago! Think the cardinal would probably lived to its ripe old age and passed on... But it is one hardy fish...

This thread suffered the same fate as the cardinal. After posted, the thread went dead for almost 2 years. On one fateful day, it was discovered and revived.

It is indeed an amazing story of one resilient fish.
