Copper Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Not so long ago, I was cleaning out my cannister filter and found about 20+ GBA fry, about the same amount of platy fry and 2 Khuli loachs. I'm not even sure how the loachs managed to fit through the filter guard. Unfortunately though there was no sign of my Pelvicachromis taeniatus fry that had magically disappeared. So, I was wondering what have you found in your cannister filter? Or any other type of filter, since I once found my missing Mossie Rabora in my internal (still alive too).

the-obstacle Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 3 guppies and 2 double red cockatoos is my count so far. I now make sure to pour my rank filter water through a net when I'm emptying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copper Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 a fully grown GBA, he managed to take the gard of the outlet, then get down it I'm surprised that your GBA managed to fit down the hose. After fishing baby GBA out of the internal too many times in a row, I now have the rule with GBA, if you get yourself in, you can get yourself out.

Snowman Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Generally just GBA fry, amazing how long they can live in the bottom of the filter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
critter_crazy Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 In my hang on filter I've found a few guppies and some young, very fat GBA & BNs :slfg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-obstacle Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Add 2 more panda cory to my total. 1 in each of the CF1200s on the big tank. The first guy I threw straight back into the tank but I fear the heckelli thought I was feeding them and snapped him up. The second one I kept in my hand in the top of the tank until the fish had given up on there being a feed involved. Didn't stop a lemon tetra racing over to have a go on him though.
