:( my poor little platy

He was there earlier and then I just couldnt find him anywhere, I was baffled, looked every place.... then I checked the old filter that I had been running to seed some additional sponges for my qt tank, and I guess during my water change earlier today the end of the filter had dropped off and it wasnt covered.... so I pulled it apart and there he was... stuffed and stuck in the tube... Im so angry at myself I should of noticed that the end had fallen off.... plus Im sad that he has gone.... he was survivor from Hannable my angel fish, and he had been cowering from her when I had saved him from that tank that they shared... what a way to go, stuffed into the filter tube ... Ive taken out that filter now and thrown it away, and placed the sponges into the other tanks filter system.....

I'm very sorry to hear that you lost a fish . But you did help him out while he was alove & took good care of him. Things like this happen, and this is how lessons are learned. Once again, I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

I am so sorry to hear about your Platy, Angelica Don't blame yourself. Accidents happen. I accidently sucked my little betta girl up my python and she died. I felt horrible, but it can happen to anyone.

I've lost so many fish to my Juwel filter I don't reccomend Juwel stuff to anyone! I know how you feel (It's worse when you lose a $16 Apisto!) and I hate it!
