thanks again. i keep looking at the picture of them on my desktop, but i just cant believe they've disapeared. i keep expecting them to walk in the door, its kinda like a feeling of extreme shock, i just cant accept it and ive felt constantly nautious since tuesday evening. i havent left the house yet, and i really dont want to even though the fridge is slowly empteying and im out of frozen bloodworms. i also sat infront of my community tank for about an hour, something i've never done before. im sorry to ramble on but i feel like im continously being punched in the gut. im sorry to bore you all with this, but thank you for youre prayers, they are greatly appreciated.
