Man, I just entered the room, when suddenly one of my tank lids broke
and the light fell in!!! My little oscar is so lucky he was fast
enough to swim away from the guilotine (spelling?) that was the glass
and the electrocution that was looming... Lucky I cut the power to the
light before it could sink far enough to zap him... I guess his name
isn't Buzz for nothing...

So he's ok, but wow is he freaked out at the moment, I guess since I
walked into the room right as it happened, he thinks I did it, now he's
hiding from me


You haven't seen fun until you've seen a Buttikoferi play tug-o-war with
a plugged in heater AFTER he breaks it open against the side of the tank.


Forgot to mention the rest of the tug-o-war bit:

After unplugging the heater, he spit it out, nudged it a few times, and
swam away. Plugging it back in would bring him back to start chewing on
it again.
