Hey guys just thought I'd share my close call of the day with you. To begin I decided to paint my 120g black so that cleaning would be easier to deal with and it would look nicer, so for the time being I had to have my bichirs and my oscar in a 50 gallon cooler. So I got everyone into the cooler and set up the filters and heater since it was gonna be awhile. It came down to the part where I was required to do some heavy lifting so I went to go grab my buddy, his names Mo0 on here. Before I left to get him i specifically instructed my mom "check in on the cooler every 5 minutes or so to see if everyones ok and that no one jumped out." She said yah yah yah how hard can that be. So i get Mo0 and come home. First thing i see in my room, little ornate flopping on the ground. I pick him up and throw him back in the cooler who top was oddly down. Then it hits me, my mom was being lazy and she tried to close the top so she didnt have to watch it but all the equipment going in it got in the way so she said screw it. She ended up messing up the intake of my filter so it was sucking up air for the 20 minutes or so that i was gone and that little guy way being cooked on the carpet. After that I went in and yelled and screamed at her then sucked it up and apologized for it, it just got me so worked up lol. Anyhow, thats my story
Almost lost an ornate today..
