I CAME HOME AND MY 12" ARROW WAS NOT IN THE TANK...I LOST MY MIND!! I LOOKED BEHIND THE TANK AND THERE HE WAS, ON TOP OF THE BASEBOARD HEATING, IN DECEMBER, IN NEW YORK, BARELY ALIVE, COVERED IN DUST..I PICKED HIM UP & HE WAS STILL ALIVE, AND COVERED IN DUST..DROPPED HIM IN THE TANK, WIPING HIM OFF, AND TRYING TO CIRCULATE WATER THROUGH HIS GILLS...HE LIVED!!...ABOUT 5 MONTHS LATER, MY GIRLFRIEND DECIDED TO SUPRISE ME AND BROUGHT HOME A BABY "SPOTTED PUFFER" SHE PUT HIM IN THE TANK W/O ME THERE...THE NEXT DAY, MY SILVER WAS LAYING ON THE BOTTOM TAKING THOSE BIG, DEEP BREATHS...HE DIED THAT NIGHT...I CRIED MY EYES OUT..I'M A GROWN ASS MAN AND THAT HURT..I MISS HER.."TINK" SHE USED TO EAT LIVE BLOODWORMS OFF OF THE SANDY BOTTOM AND AS SHE SWAM TO THE TOP, THE MARINE SAND WOULD ESCAPE THROUGH HER GILLS...HENCE TINK, LIKE TINKERBELL..ALONG W/RAY, A MOTORO,A SNOWFLAKE EEL, AN 11'' GHOST KNIFE, AND AN ALBINO CHANEL CAT THAT ATE TOO MUCH AND HAD TO GO..I LOVE MY SILVERS..ALWAYS..PLATINUMS ARE BEAUTIFUL TOO..MY FAVORITE TANK....155 GAL.
