Mine would have to be when i went on holidays to Melbourne for 1 week and came back with my whoel display tank dead due to insufficient oxygen in the tank..Lost quite afew valuble fish..including breeding pairs of calvus..frontosa..etc.. Oh yes..and theres also that time where i did a water change and went to grab lunch forgetting about the tank..came back and the tank was 3/4 empty and the floor was soaked! cheers Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r.d.m Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 ive posted this before,but my worst expierience is , my percula clownfish spawned and just before the eggs wre due to hatch the bottom of the tank cracked spewing salt water over 2 airpumps which promptly caught fire, the tank was 3 months old, i contacted the lfs and they said" no worries drop it in and well get it fixed for you" to which i replied"#@!**F**&^%$" the tank came very close to getting launched through their window- but im over it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
