It was bound to happen. My TB died today. I cant believe I didnt see this coming. I was just trying to push things in my tank a little too hard and this is what happens. My first loss. It is hard to take. I am going to put a picture of my TB in the next post so you can see the folly in what is a lack of patience on my part.

Cover your kids eyes. This aint pretty.

A backyard burial followed by a 21 squirt salute for this fine tankmate is in order!

Jim----Sorry to hear about your loss. When's the funeral? Maybe I'll fly down. Is there a charity that we can make donations to? Hope you're not taking it too hard!!! LMAO!!!

I used TB for "fish only" activities.

Well, there was that one time...

No such thing as death with duct tape. Wouldn't want any TB's to get confused. Could be nasty with the salt.
