Wow, in San Francisco, the smallest aro I see for sale are about 5" and the silvers that are about 7-8" can be found for $19.00. I've learned from experience with an aro with the size of 2" to make sure your intake pipe from your filter has a screen. Even with a screen, I've had aros even larger that 2" getting stuck to the intake tube or screen. It's sad to see your aro die, not from fighting or disease, but from something that's needed to keep your water clean. The Doctor.
