Has anyone ever had any mice fall in their tanks? Did your fish eat them? I would expect the fish to rapidly attack and drown the mouse, then slowly demolish it. Or the larger fish keepers' fish to just swalloe them whole. Any experience with this? I remember when i went over my uncles house once he threw a little fuzzy mouse in his oscar tank. The oscar swam to it, examined it, then used its vacuum mouth to instantly swallow it. Does anyone feed their fish mice?
I don't know if there's anyone willing to admit that they have enough of a home mouse problem that the occassional mouse falls into their tank.
As far as intentially feeding their fish mice, just do a search on mouse, mice, or pinky to view threads on the subject. Or check out the vids on youtube.

I don't see a problem with this if people keep tanks in their garages or some basements. Or reptile owners. I've seen some reptile keepers on youtube that bred mice and I could see a mouse or a couple escaping and falling in. But I understand what you're saying.

I believe I've heard of this too. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=twVxRNSTzKI
Just found this. I admit it's kind of cool to see that something like that is possible.

You never see any of the problems. This thread seems useless and shouldn't be in general aquaria imo. I see some major flaws in your questions, how is anyone suppose to answer your question. If they saw the mouse I'me quite sure they wouldn't let it near or fall into the tank and most likely solve the issue before this problem would occur, also most people have lids for their tanks. You don't normally see tanks under shelves and such other than under other tanks And a mouse wouldn't just fall, Mice aren't that dumb they wouldn't just fall in an aquarium, people wouldn't breed mice by aquariums to have them fall. I can see anything logical about this. You know what i think is cool, to see snapping turtles in the wild or a proper home. Don't know where you could come up with this stuff. PS I'm am not saying it couldn't happen saying there is a high chance of it not occurring.
I don't see the need to do it. It is completely unnecessary to feed mice to fish there is other foods. The people who feed mice to fish are sick in the head and looking for pleasure.

To answer ur question idk to many people who feed there fish mice besidesmy friend and his huge rtc. Theres always someone thag visits my house telli. Me to throw stupid stuff in the tank for the fish to eat like mice,lizards,baby turtles etc. i strongly recommend u nt trying to feed ur fish mice and stuff of that nature its useless when u have pellets, fillets and feeder fish specifically for the purpose of feeding ur fish.
I see you have been receiving the general hostility again.
To answer the question, for a mouse to stray into a tank is very minute I think unless you live in a farm. City areas will be prone to mice but who will admit to having an infestation? It's an interesting scenario but very unlikely, still not remote. Even if it happens, any one who works 8 hours a day will most likely never come home to his/her fish devouring mice. Mice also are nocturnal so any monster fish keeper is most likely sleeping. Most tanks are covered by the way, specially the monster keepers since most of these fish are either jumpers or that their tanks are huge humidifiers. Also, the tanks themselves are very slippery. Remember glass or acrylic?
