THE DEAD FISH THREAD!!!!!

I had my 180g sw wipe out last weekend.

We were busy doing a big catering gig and the sump was blowing air into the tank, so I got my daughter to unplug the pump so I could put some water in and then plug the pump back in. Except we forgot we had unplugged the pump.

The catering gig was for the canadian cancer society, as I am their corporate food provider for their relay for life that they do.

This one is totally my bad, the function is a 13 hr event where I feed people from 6 pm to 6 am, and then I pack up my spot and bring it back to the restaurant. So shall we say I was a bit wiped out, 1 1/2 day to prep, sleep for 3 hours and then get it ready to move out and be set up by 4 pm.

I did not actually come in till early monday morning, my wife did the unload of things on sat. morning.

I could tell something was wrong the moment I walked in the door.

Lost panther grouper, 4 silver scats, 1 niger trigger, 1 koran angel, 1 purple tang, 1 scorpus tang, 2 dalmation damsel, 1 tomato clown, 1 bat fish and a whole lot of little critters. I did not take any pictures because I was in a rush to get the victims out of the tank and do a massive water change.

Thankfully quite a few of my hermits made it from dead tank to redone tank.

This is my 14" RTC x TSN. he was born with a crooked spine like you see in the picture. I'm not completely sure how he died but he was swimming upside down when i got back from my vacation yesterday and he was dead when i woke up..

I posted mine a while back. Couldn't bring myself to simply throw him out. So, I took the royal to the taxidermist. He's being mounted to his favorite piece of driftwood.


Simply Awesome ^^^^^ :headbang2
