Whats the most death defying thing youve ever known a fish to do? I have two examples.

1 - thought my white clouds hadnt spawned in a 3g tanks so I removed them and syphoned out all but perhaps 1/4 inch of water. I left this for 1 week before returning to clean it out properly and try again. low and behold there were at least 80 fry, 27 of which were raised to adulthood.

2 - on a betta farm in thailand I was looking at a disused and severly neglected 300g vat (out in the sun) when I noticed some movement. The vat hadnt been looked at in months, but alive and well were almost a full spawn (about250) of betta fry. the temperature? 39 degrees c

aren't fish harder than they are made out to be?
 
Well, this likely can't compare to your story, but I had a Jack Dempsey that 3 times had his tail bit off to the meat, and had ich so bad once he lay on the bottom of the tank by a rock barely breathing and quivering..not only lived..but spawned many times successfully with my other Jack ! I think he was indestructable!
