I had over 4 feet of storm surge water in my house. It was high enough to go completely above my Fluval flex 32.5 which housed my flowerhorn. When I was finally able to get back to my property I couldn't find him in the tank so assumed he was flushed out to sea. I started to sweep water out and later found him in the guest bedroom, on his side, and in an inch or so of water barely breathing. The water is mostly brackish/salt (not to mention a lot of other bad stuff) and he honestly could have been in it for 12+ hours. Quickly got him in freshwater with prime and he is currently alive and well. Lucky fish.
