dude, i'm very sorry for your loss :(

btw, what did it die from? I've seen many polys die in a swollen state like that

It's not swollen. It's fat :D I'm trying to grow mine to that big and fat
 
looks like septicemia from the red patches on the chest and tail are. Do you have any fish in with them that might be a slime coat eater? I lost some really nice polys due to my ignorance of the fact the calico shark was doing swim by slime coat bites....

sorry, but how did it die?
No idea. All other polys appear to be fine. The only unusual thing about it is that palmas palmas was fatter than normal. His tankmates are other polys, 5 clown loaches, 8 angelfishs, and 1 Black Ghost Knife.
 
Wtf? is this one of the new ones or one of the originals?

Sorry to hear it man! At least it doesn't seem like a freak accident like mine and John's losses. But then again, I hope that's not a bad thing. I do see some red on the belly like hemorrhagic septicemia, but it's very little so can't say that's the case.

Yep, this is the original one and this one happened to be my best looking palmas palmas too. Why did it have to be the nicest one????:cry:

Always is :irked:

Those polli we got from Ted, well the one that died was the nicer more bright yellow of the two :irked:

I friggin told myself to change the water slower because it the tank was hot and the water was cold, but I got impatient and filled it up. I got lucky the second polli survived.
 
bummer seems like alot of palmas have been dieing lately
