Hi guys,

I own a tank for more than a month now and right now I have mixed feelings
about it.

It is not what I expected it to be and I am starting to think of getting
rid of it.

It has nothing to do of taking care of the fish, the money spent on
hardware.

It's just I like animals and it stresses me to see fish die and I am the
one to blame for it due to my inexperience and for putting fish into a
tank and play with their lifes...

I had fish that died because they got sucked into the filter, because the
water didnt have the proper qualities and now because of disease...
It's a constant battle for me to take care of the fish and I am losing it.

Sorry for my venting but I am frustrated. Thanks


I have lost 6 fish in the past month. It happens. I had to put one down
tonight actually. An albino cory that was sick. I lost 3 rasboras and 3
albino corys. I think the corys had a fungus on their mouth areas and the
tails looked torn.

Point is, it happens. Don't get too down about it.

You'll do better soon. Really.

Tom
