I hate losing fish

[ladynaoko]

Woke up to find both of my female dwarf neon rainbow fish dead this morning. Neither were looking right yesterday and were hiding away a lot - the male had been chasing them both a lot recently so could he have stressed them out too much?

sorry to hear of you loss

I lost my male Opaline Gourami the other day. It didn't affect me as much as it should've but then I've had a rough few weeks so a fish death isn't too much in comparison. Still sucks to lose one though.

I've found they other fishes that stress a certain fish can drive them nuts and eventually kill them, either from physical abuse or just stress. Sorry about your loss. Oh, and the female might just have been old or sick...just a thought.....

That's really sad, I'd hate to lose my rainbowfish they're the most stunning occupants of my tank. So sorry for your loss

Sorry for your loss.

The stress form the male was probably to blame.

Hi ladynaoko

I hate lossing my fish...I tried to write down all the fish I have lost in a little note book...It was kind of hopeless because over the last year I lost count of how many have died...I hate it so now I'm really careful around my tank.
I really sorry to hear about your loss...

They're in a better place now.

The male is now harrassing my platies *sigh* I'm gonna have to get rid of him. He's a lovely looking fish but he harrasses EVERYTHING that swims past him now - I bought some white clouds when I got my new plec today and he's already going after them
Tomorrow after work I'll take him to the lfs and try to get store credit. Mum thinks I should put him in my smaller tank.. but I know he'll start on Buxton and all hell will be let loose.

Sorry to hear or your loss, I just recently lost my RTS last week which I had for about 3 years.
