Today i bought a used 10 gal tank to be used as a hospital tank. well i brought it home and when i open the car door to bring it in there was a fish flapping around! i quick ran inside and filled a pitcher with water, treated it and put the fish in it. After close inspection I think it might be a dojo loach. The woman i bought it from "forgot he was in there"!
For now i put him in my twenty gallon with my tiger barbs, it looks like hes already buried himself in the gravel. ha ha ha

Wow, that's really lucky. So he was without water for the whole trip?

fungusonmytoe

yup, however the gravel was wet, but he was pretty much without water for about 15 mintues. i was thinking, when i called them woman i told her about it and she said "oh i thought i got them all" i hope she didn't flush them.

Look at it on the bright side, you saved one, atleast. and 15 minutes without water but in damp gravel should be fine for dojo loaches.

Lucky little Dojo. Since Dojos like more of their own kind and get about 8 inches thats a perfect excuse to get a bigger tank in the near future
