'Willy' my largest blood parrot passed away about 3 months ago due to a fungus of some sort that I still have no idea how he got. Willy was a beast, about 9 inches and I really miss him. I have a 60 gallon blood parrot community tank with 6 blood parrots in it currently (a bit overstocked imo I'm upgrading soon). The biggest bummer is that my other BPs seemed to miss him when I took him out to quarantine him and I ended up moving his quarantine tank up by the 60 and they all went crazy banging into the glass trying to see their buddy. Well sadly as you know he did not make it and ever since the rest of my BPs have been super shy and hide when people walk by and sometimes hide from me. They all used to be curious and friendly to everyone. Just sucks. Hopefully I can move them all to a 120+ soon and they will be back to their old selves. Anyone have any similar experiences?

The fish on the left in my avatar, I don't have any really good ones on my phone, they are on my laptop which is being fixed right now. It was my fault because I couldn't figure out what to treat him for and starting overthinking things and he failed to get better regardless of everything I tried.

I recently lost my Jardini(Jumped out of a 2" opening near my outtake pipe).. My Datnoids and Polys got along with him great and would follow him around.. Now they just all sulk in a corner.. It's weird. I've been off my fish keeping game for a while..
