well today i get home an notice that my clown trigger that i have had since he was 2 in long and now or was about 6 in Died. :angry :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( In my 29 gal tank i had 3 gold stripe cardinals die and a bicolor die. the other day my power was off for 22 hours thanks to a screw up with the electric company and i thought all was well but seems that about a week later i noticed some fish were sick and i am thinking that it was do to the power outage and they had no flow or areation for about 10 hours before i found out and got my battery powered air stones. but all look fine except for one puffer he is acting strange and bouceing off the glass so hope he will make it. i know my loss was considerable less than gators but i know how he feels now and how this can make you rethink the hobby. i know it is a dumb thing to make me think about getting out but that is the fish that i just truly wanted and about the only one i really ever wanted so if i decide to get rid of everything i will let you folks know. :sick

I am very sorry for your losses also Carl. The power was out the other night at my house too but just not quite that long...I set a battery operated timer to wake me up every two hours so I could stir the water up and take water from my sump and put it up in the display, so far no losses. If there is anything that you need let me know.

I know how you feel buddy, when some of my horses(seahorses) died, I was heart broken, I dont care much for the corals( ok who is going to bash me) regardless of their price, but my horses were so cool, but I got some more, and I know is not the same, but time heals all wounds my friend.
don't get out, let the force by with you(corky or what) :P :P
