Rip Squeak

Post by mrgreen »

I found him dead and decomposing this afternoon. I don't know what happened but I did a Large w/c. Removed the breeder box. I dunno if the water in there didn't circulate well. He was against the side- kinda in the plastic. Maybe he got stuck? He was healthy otherwise. Squirt is still fine.

I'm sorry. :(
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Thanks.

I did dose with melafix just so the other fish would be soothed after living with a decomposing body for hours.
