    I was wondering what would some of you do if one of your favorite passed on?

    I know i would probably first curse the lfs out then throw my lil stress ball at the tank.lol :mad:

    I'd be upset that I bought an unhealthy fish/old fish died but glad to know that my scavengers did their job and turned it to bones overnight and had a spendy meal at my/my fish's expense.

    I would be bummed out. Some of my favorites touch a certain place in my heart, much like my dogs. I would try to determine how it passed...8)

    I lost my big blue, who I had since the beginning of my tank, this past Oct. I have him in my signature for a memorial. Yeah, I was bummed out...it sucked... but he was outgrowing the tank and really harassing his tank mates...I haven't gotten a replacement for him and don't think I will. I'll start spending my $$ on corals;D(when I save it up)

    I try not to get attached to any of my live-stock b/c if I did, all my money wouldnt go to my tank, instead it would be spent on pills and shrinks.;D
