Well most know about my troubles with my 500 gal by now-
Well nothing has changed-still waiting of freaking bulkheads-LOL

Anyhow-While thats down I got fish crammed into tight quarters.Needless to say I'm not happy-Why you may ask-Cause it's been this way for almost 2 darn months now-In this time I've gotten kinda depressed in my tanks.I'm guilty of neglect due to life circumstances and time for my beauties...

Anyhow I managed to clean my 125 gal with an eel,catfish,a baby senegal and two pleco's.One being a common and the other a gold nugget-
I did about a 60 percent water change,along with gravel vac-it was pretty bad..But nothing too bad-Anyhow I manage to look over and find my gold nugget just straight up running into the side of the tank.He did this two or three times as I scrambled for what to due since this is the only freshwater tank at my house now-Then he darted twoards the back of the tank and just rolled over-I switched the python to fill and added prime-I grabbed the goldie and held him near the new current comming in...He didn't make it------Rip little buddy-Sorry for killing you after almost 4 years......Everyother fish is fine and show no signs of anything-Nor did they throughout the water change...


I also had my little baby aro in a 33 gal long housed by himself----Everything was fine until the other day when I finally got a free day to check on my fish.
I found in my 90 gal that my big clown knife decided to want to clean house-He demolished my Jd-Although it's living-it barely made it and now looks like complete garbage-Many scales missing and big chunks took out of him-He also manage to beat on my gold severum a bit-Although not near as bad as my JD.....So with this said-I manage to move my baby aro to the only tank where he would not get ate......And thats was to my 10 gal (monster tank of course) with a bunch of guppies and dojo loaches...Anyhow I had a secure lid-But my employee feeds this tank and left just alittle gap in the top-Needless to say I no longer have an aro...Rip little guy as well-


Needless to say I'm ready to pull my hair out,so to say anyhow....

Thanks for listening to this garbage....



End rant/

My too-:irked:

My fish have suffered cause of this-Poor prized(literally could be an award winner for good looks) pacu has gotten torn up-Neglecting feeding the big due to being crammed into a 150 gal.Atleast water changes get done on a reg basis....

Fish getting killed-Species that dont belong together are now being housed together-So thats only a mtter of time as well.....
As well as many other troubles----But I could go on for pages about my fish hobby troubles right now-------But no one wants to read a sad sorrow of a damn story I guess.LOL

Just not happy with this right now-

Man, sorry to hear that Ak... :(


That's rough. Hang in there.

It's quite ridiculous-----But I guess things will turn around again down the road......

I'm actually awaiting for bulkheads from cali-----None in this state for my setup----Can't even due like rally suggested-My tank is drilled weird and for some reason the pvc with threads are not long enough to go through my tank-----:irked:
 
Your Pacu is worth the trouble, chin up. Hope it works out for you

I sure hope so-

I just hope he makes a full recovery to his normal ole looking self after getting transfered back into big tank......

wish bulkheads would hurry and get here......Cali is slow-LOL
