    NEWS FLASH: Late yesterday afternoon Elton John attempted filter suicide for the second time. The goldflash fairy wrasse was found nearly lifeless under the pump. For twenty minutes rescue workers tirelessly attempted to pull him out. They finally succeeded after a long battle with the pump and Elton's determination to end his life. Once returned to the main tank, Elton John, the goldflash fairy wrasse appeared to be entirely lifeless. Fortunately he is very close firends with Jesus the carpenter wrasse (spanish pronunciation) who proceeded to raise Elton fom the dead for the second time this week. Jesus is quoted as saying "I just couldn't lose my best budy. But if that black clown dies, he's on his own!" Elton is now resting comfortably in his home, eating well, and recovering nicely. He will be required to attend weekly therapy sessions, and is under suicide watch until authorities can install a fish guard.

    LOL, make sure ya hide the prescriptions and antifreeze, lock your guns up, and don't put Jersey Shore or toddlers and tiaras or he'll croak for sure.

    Congrats on the save, Jesus was a carpenter BTW, maybe ask him to fashion a fence up for the filter!;)
