There's another thread this is being discussed in. Mine was out all the time for months. Lately, he just hangs out in the rockwork. I hadn't seen him for 3 days then today I caught a glimpse of him swimming under some rock. If your fish is being harassed it will hide. Mine isn't being bothered at all that I can tell, it just likes the rockwork. It kinda sucks, but I get excited now when I see him just because he's not dead.

I put mine in the tank and it disappeared for a week. Now it is out all the time. Don't worry you will soon see more of your fish.

I have a cannon that cost 750 bucks so it should be fairly easy to get a good shot lol. Well I got a better one oh and I got mine for $7.00 I was suprised. It was cause they were getting a shipment of them in the next day. here is a better pic...

[ianrich147]

he ment the fish

 

[donttaptheglass]

I know. but when you get the response in an e mail out of context, it looks like he means the camera. The question was sarcasm, but typed responses don't always come across that way.

 

[h8z2luze]

lol ya no belive me we are paying for the camera. Every month. *sigh* Anyway I notice we get stuff a lot cheaper than a lot of people on this site. Must be location.

 

[ianrich147]
