this is funny

yesterday i was doing maintenance on my tanks like every sunday ,with my arm deep in a 180 megaflow,when i was violently splashed in the face.at first i thought i dropped something in the tank,and i must say i was a bit startled.after changing my under garments,i looked at the tank and found a coris wrasse that was missing in action for at least a month swiming around quite happily.he was hanging around in the overflow for all that time and decided it was time to move back in.he looks fine except for a small scar on his side.what a tough fish.

That IS funny. Glad he seems to be okay. And you, too, after that scare.

thats not funny thats Hillarious.
I can remeber in High School on spring break in FT. Meyers FL.
A school of fish wash swimming through the tide. I figured being a smart person ya know Id check them out a lil closer. After about 30 or 40 smacks to the head by several fish i decided thats a lil to close. LOL
