Agh. Sorry to hear about the tang :/. Bummer.

I have a questions about your damsels, though. How are they getting a long with everyone and do you have any trouble makers?
Perfectly well, surprisingly. But observing their behavior makes me think they should have been added after other fish that I want. They seem to have spaced them selves out perfectly instead of schooling. It worries me for later additions.

Thanks you guys. I am so disappointed. I noticed that there were many fish in the system breathing heavy and fast. the tang had been there for many months. They keep the fish in copper. I bet their level dropped. And I knew I was gonna place him in copper. I am sure they recently added fish, and he caught something but did not look ill yet. That is the thing about wishing all LFS actually did a 2 week copper QT prior to placing them in the for sale tanks. My oldest fav LFS does a QT in copper. I do love that about them.

Sorry for your loss.. Your dealing with enough issues for this to happen.
Thanks. It is always something. Last night the green connector between the python and exit loosened and sprayed gallons of water everywhere before I got the water off. Always something!

Sorry but this made me LOL :p I recently experienced similar situation with water spraying from my portable RO sink connector and during the process of tightening it I managed to knock the waist line out of my sink and it was steadily dumping water on the floor while I was busy fixing connector ;Facepalm it wasn’t until I stepped back from sink that I realized what had happened :mad: ;Hilarious:D

I am ok. Now I am having vision trouble but I suspect a visual vestibular problem. I am supposed to call a neuro opthomologist Monday. I hope they get me in fast. Double vision is very distressing.

It makes me think of Brews suggestion to get a camera set up to film me in the fishroom rather than my tank. But I could not have post that video on R2R. I would have been banned. Think Ralphy in a Christmas story, and foul words about fornicating pigs. It was bad, the stuff coming outta my mouth! I should be ashamed. :oops:
