Pondbottom

Post by yunachin »

There was a tragic accident today at my house, I don't want to get into details but it cost my GSP Lord Von Pondbottom his life. He was my first puffer and I have had him for a very long time.
In the event of this tragedy I will be taking a leave of absence. This is very difficult to handle. :cry:

Thank you. Not well actually. I had my R/O Unit go bad and I lost several fish here. I ordered a replacement but it will not be here until Wednesday. So in the meanwhile I have had to lug gallons upon gallons of water to my house from my store. With 8 tanks that gets a little difficult. So I am on edge until I get all of my tanks back to normal. :grrr:

I'm sorry you went through all that you did chin. It's bad enough to have the R/O go bad but losing fish because of it is as bad as it gets. I had tears in my eyes when I read your first post.
