What's the most grusome death one of your fish has suffered?

[bobblehead27]

Besides misjudging fish's temperment which i'm sure everyone has done, there has been a few (not all by me, but by my little sister as well)
1)she decided to wash my dad's salt water collection, WITH SHAMPOO
2) she decided to give his cichlids a makeover, with makeup and mascara
3) i was young and put fish into scortching hot water, without even attempting to acclimate them at all. (That's how i killed my favorite fish
4) I was selling all my cichlids (they had gotten too big) and took all the rocks and shells out that i had made their caves with, and went to the store, sold them for store credit, and came back to set the water up for a new batch of their offspring, as i was setting the rocks up, i pick up a shell and one of my neolamprogous daffodil fish fell out dead obviously

Had a 25cm Murray Cod that in summer, tank got to around 35 deg when I was at the beach....

Came home to find him white as a ghost, breathing damn heavily and finding it hard to stay upright.

Me being the noob that I was at 14 had another tank, filled it, conditioned it and put him in.... with 20 deg tap water. So not only did he first get damn hot, I then water shocked him by placing him in cold water :s He ended up getting colour back and swam okay but the next morning I found him stiff as a board at the bottom of the tank

Favorite 4-line pictus ate too much and it's stomach exploded.

That can actually happen? My pictus cats eat until their stomachs are huge...maybe I should be careful there...haha.

Bumblebee cat that met it's maker prematurely via Mr. Python the vacuum.

I vacuumed up a longfin pleco by accident at work...I was kind of far from the faucet, ended up taking the tube with me when I ran as it would fall out. I stuck the end in the nearest tank full of juvie dempseys, thought I could get it out before any damage. Oh lord..it looked like a pack of wolves on top of the pleco while I tried to fish it out of there. He lasted a few days and then died.

Okay...so I skewered a dying pregnant guppy on a feeding stick yesterday, to try and get a fish to eat. The babies popped out onto my fingers, very much alive. That was kind of sad...I won't do that again...

hmmm.. I gotta say my Albinos enegal.. Man I miss him... One day I saw him crawling on the floor I had no idea how he jumped out since he was still tiny... around 4inches.. Well He was quite dry and I immediately put him back.... Over the next few days he didnt eat and at last one day I went to the tank and saw his body... with the head RIPPED OFF....

Next.. my bro's Albino pleco and oscar.... Both I believe destroyed by my snakehead.... The pleco suffered a slow death... the front part of its head was ripped and the whole tail suffered the same faith... It lived for about another hour and then passed away... the albino oscar was a different story.. I saw it for one day then the next I dont see it but I see a bulge in my snakehead's tummy....
