Survivor!

[penguin22]

About 2 months ago I cycled my 2nd tank (100ltr planted). Even though I used old filter medium and ran it for a month with plants I wasnt prepared to risk one of my fish as the 1st to go in. I purchased 2 cherry barbs a male and a female to start the tank off, after a week of the male chasing the female the female dissapeared even though I couldnt find a body I new it was dead due to the stress of the new surroundings and being chased. I added my platy and then purchased 2 female cherrys so one wouldnt be chased around too much by the male. Today when cleaning out 1 my smaller filter (a tiny fluval 1) a fish jumped out and dropped 3ft feet onto the concrete garage floor. I picked it up and put it in the tank and was amazed to see 4 cherrys swimming together that fish had survived in the filter for 20 days!!! Although its not out of the woods yet I think it will survive I am stunned, but very happy
