Well, it did die! In the very back of my 135 gal under the biggest pile of rocks he could find! When I reached in there to take him out it just fell apart, liquified in my hands, it was the most reched smell ever. Little parts falling all over my tank getting blown around by the power heads. Now I'm guessing the water is toxic so I'll have to do some frequent water changes and clean out the filter again. Wish I would have bought a small one now! Dame Anenomes.
