Dead black aro.....

[maxwill]

i would cry
sorry for your loss

the next worry, is will the remaining 2 start beating on each other, it happens all the time-
and since were mentioning it, I lost 2 blacks this year- they were 18" and 20"- and each time one died the aggression grew more and more in the tank

I got better luck with black aro... Even when I have only two in the tank, they don't fight. Can't say the same with Leichardti or other aros

Im so sorry for your loss, I would honestly cry if my silver died, I have pure love for my fish. Youll have to just pick up and move on. Best of luck

I totally understand. Our silver jumped at 22" long. And what's worse is it was our fault for forgetting to put the cover back on the tank. We got distracted and ended up going out somewhere and forgot all about it. Came home to him on the floor completely dead .
We put a lot of work into him, raised him from about 4", and he was healthy and beautiful.

I would honestly cry if my silver died

I DID cry. I was totally distraught when I came home to that. I actually put him back in the water in hopes that he was just stunned or something from hitting the floor and I wouldn't take him out and admit he was dead for like 2 hrs.

Very nice silver... I stil have a silver in there too. All four aros of then never shown any agression. Just keep them all well fed.

That's the difference between a kid and a grown man! They just don't know what to do with their time!
