My aro died...

[skillzdatkillz]

I woke up this morning and my aro had died overnight. I had 2 bala sharks in with him with an ornate and a thin bar. THe bala sharks were nipping his fins so I moved them, but some of his fins were pretty beat up. He stopped eating after that. I got meilings almond tree leaves in the mail so I put 2 of them into my cansiter. I started melafixing the tank 1/2 dose everyday. Last night I noticed he looked like he was gasping for air, I have a bubble wall in the tank. I woke up and he was dead. This screwed up my entire weekend.
