When we had a tropical acquarium, we owned guppies, mollies and a siamese fighter. We fed our siamese with the baby guppies and such by catching a baby and then catching him in the same net. My mum was doing this one day and had finished, letting the siamese out of the net she looked away from the acquarium and she drew the net out of the water. What she hadn't realised was that the siamese had shot back into the net at the last moment and she had just dumped the net on top of the tank with the poor fish in the net, just looking for another meal. When she was going past the tank a while later she realised that the fish wasn't in the tank and was horrified when she saw the crumpled red fish, lying still in the net.......
My mum then quickly picked up the net and put it in the water, miraculously the fish started moving and swam off. It lived a full and long life, much longer than any of our other siamese fighters! :D

We went fishing once. It was my sister's first time fishing, and she caught a fish all on her own. There were a lot of old guys there, 30-60. I was around 10. My sister was 6. She pulled this fish out of the water and started giggling and being happy like a five year old, a bunch of the old guys turned around to look, and they started flipping the hell out! They were backing away, and telling everyone else to back off, and yelling! We were like: What the hell??? Well, I wasn't. I was ten. My mom was like that. Some guy eventually came forward with a thick glove on, ripped the fish off, and tossed it back in the water. Turns out the fish was poison, even to the touch. The funny part was all these big tough men were screaming like babies, and my little sister was giggling her butt off.

Well I had koi fish, and I took them out the tank to fill the tank with clean water. I know that I wasn't suppose to put the fish in right away for it can harm them. So i waited for two days, put them in and they seemed fine, but i guess the period of time wasn't long enough so it started doing really fast head spins, and black flips.

Went fishing with a guy who had no idea of what tackle was. So we went to the bait shop and got all kinds of goodies. After we were ready to leave I decided to play a joke. I told him he had forgot to get his fish stretcher. This guy went back in and asked for his fish stretcher. Everyone inside the shop was cracking up. He had no idea this was a joke. I will never forget that day. LMAO

my sister, dad, uncle, cousin and i went fishing when i was really little. i dont remember this but my dad has a good time telling this story!
there was a crazy owl that was always flying around during the day by my cousins' house (they live on a lake in the middle of the woods). the day we went fishing, my cousin caught a HUGE muskie, and as he was standing there admiring it as it dangled there on the end of his pole, the crazy owl swooped down and snatched it right off the hook, and took it up into a tree and started to eat it!
:D

I have a lot, but this one is one of my favorites. M apologies for it not being aquarium related...
My buddy and I went up to the home lake one time and we pull up to one of the fishing docks that's completely full of people. No one's had a bite all day and we show up toting a rod apiece armed with a Texas rigged plastic worm. Alex makes a shitty cast and BAM! Hooks up! I make a long cast and what-do-ya-know? Double Hook Up! We both fight our fish, making them jump and splash around with all these onlookers just gawking at us... we each get our bass in (his was 3 3/4 pounds, mine was just an ounce smaller) and people start clapping, hollering and carrying on, and one guy that's with his family (and he's pissed!) looks at us and says:
"Most of us have been here all fu*kin' day since morning without a Go**amn bite and you two jerks show up with your fancy baitcasting gear and you each catch one on your first fu*kin' cast? What the fu*k's up with that? Are you two on TV or something?"
It was great. And I will never forget those words or the look on that dude's face.

My brother got a fish and the night after all the sudden it started having babies!!!! The store told us it was male when we bought it. I guess not! Well while it was having the babies, IT STARTED EATING THEM! We saved most of them but it was funny because he was younger so it was like "MOMMY MY FISH IS HAVING BABIES!!" 10 seconds later "MOMMY MY FISH IS EATING IT'S BABIES!!"
