ryanjury Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Gutted man There is nothing worse than loosing your fav fish.. But I agree with the others although you will be a bit gutted with it for a while and think you want to give up it does pass and you will be right back into it so don't sell up just yet.

LYNDYLOO Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Sorry to read about your sad news Had the same thing happen to my favourite Gold Severum a few years back, had 2 gold's in the same tank, they became quite territorial, one had ago at the other, the one being attacked swan sooo fast he hit head first into a big rock I had in the Tank, was so gutted. I even took him out of the tank and tried giving him mouth to mouth, hmmm probably sounds weird, but seemed like the right thing to do at the time. Blamed myself for weeks :roll: The hurt will slowly get better, as they say "Time will heal" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
