    How is her tail doing now? I know it's hard to decide whether to euthanize or to hold out for hope, I've been there too. I had my fish suffering and had to decide as well. I held out and he ended up pulling through. I'm sorry man, I wish you the best.

    Funny you say that about the Tang !!!! The second I put the tang in the tank the Lion had it half way in her mouth, I spooked {smacked} the lion with a tickle stick and she let it go !!!!

    Man I am sorry for the loss, she was beautiful and huge! Mine wasn't quite as big, but at 5 years old, you can imagine mine was big too. Putting him down was hard too, I feel your pain. :(
