    I emptied my tank on Thursday and moved everything to the new tank at our new house. I left maybe an inch of water above the sand. I looked and looked but couldn't find my melanarus. This morning I started shopvaccing it the sand and somehow the fish appeared along the side of the tank still alive but breathing heavily. I dropped him in the overflow and got an air stone going. When I finished with the sand and I fished him out and took him to the new tank.

    We'll see if he survive shut I can't believe he was in that tank for for days and all alive. I looked everyday for him.
