Awful hospital tank

[JuiceBox52]

This tank at the hospital is making me mad, but hey at least its keeping me occupied, wallowing in annoyance lol

Theres a mono covered with open wounds, fuzz on his mouth whos swimming vertically not normal, being constantly attacked by the sailfin tang

Theres a sailfin tang that is so pale, definitely not healthy and flashing on the rocks
The sailfin is attacking every other fish in the tank, the other two or three fish are hiding, and also flashing on the rocks

Theres this poor little blue fish thats so incredibly bloated

I wanna say something but i know its always outside companies in charge of the tanks, not the hospital itself

Sailfish tangs are notorious bully’s. They usually don’t tolerate any other fish except fox faces, and even then they can stress them to death.

Very sad to see such beautiful creatures being mistreated just because of neglect and improper stocking.

Saying something about it to the hospital staff might be helpful. Whatever company that maintains it (and whoever hired them) should know.

I thought by hospital tank you meant a QT tank that was your's or a friend's lol. But no, it is actually a hospital-tank in a hospital.
I feel bad for those fish... That is completely unacceptable that an aquatic company that sets up aquariums would do that. They should be knowledgeable on what they do.

Oh my gosh... Thats not good at all. Forget the hospital tank, you need to just rest. You pass out and have numbness in legs? Do you have any sharp back pains? Maybe that's a nerve is being pinched, or even a cluster of them. That can cause sharp pains and numbness, maybe even cause collapsing/passing out.
I hope you feel better. As I was reading your condition, I honestly became worried. I mean that, I was and still am very very concerned for your well being. I never thought I would be as concerned as I am from someone online. Seeing your artwork is like getting to know you and to know that the person you have come to know is collapsing and in a constant pain, hurts. I really pray that you get better soon. I seriously have so many other things I want to say but I don't know how. I know that sounds stupid but I'm being completely honest. I've never been good at putting emotions into words. So, I am sorry if I came across weird. Just please get better and rest up as best as you can.

your avatar is very interesting. You can feel the emotions of the subject.
You should be be able to sell copies of it.

I think you should do a drawing of that same subject in a very happy mood and sell the two of them as a pair. I bet that would get lots of interest.

Sorry to hear of your present condition. Wishing you a quick recovery.

I agree but I think this is an inappropriate time to bring that up after the news received of her being in the condition she is in now.

Sorry to hear about your problems Buddy. I can empathise about spending time just watching sick fish as I know that the amount of time spent just waiting for things to happen in most hospitals is incredible. I had a similar day last week with my wife trying to find out about her own immense pain.
Best wishes mate.
Oh, if you are in the UK you'll find that most hospitals charge excessive amounts for parking. The car parks are monitored by private companies that don't give a $hit about mitigating circumstances if you are a second over the paid for time.
I have the answer to that as long as the car park is montored by ANPR. Don't pay a penny but before you leave, just cover your rear number plate with a face mask. I use that trick all the time.
