Once upon a time, there lived a girl whose wonderful boyfriend gave her a beautiful aquarium for Christmas. She carefully chose a number of fish, who happily swam and played in their new aquatic habitat. They chased each other, ate food, and grew a lot bigger, and the girl was happy with her fish.
When the girl and her wonderful boyfriend got married, the fish made a big trip to their new apartment. They set up residence in a different, but also nice, aquarium, where they happily swam and played. They chased each other, ate food, and grew a lot bigger.
Then, there was a bad week. No one knows why there was a bad week, but there was, and it was bad. A neon tetra died. Another neon tetra died. The green and orange glass fish died. The red glass fish died. And one of the zebra danios just up and disappeared.
The girl was very sad. Her aquarium was very empty. There were only two neon tetras and a zebra danio left, along with a very large algae eater who probably ate the missing fish.
It was not a very good week.

hmmm. and to think i asked that girl for advise on how to take care of fish.
hey!! I still think my fish-take-care-of advice is pretty sound. Perhaps all the fish arrived at their expiry date at the same time and it had nothing to do with bad water. I don't know. Whatever the case is, I'm really sad.
my deepest regret on the passing of your fish! let me guess, swimmy is still alive and well? ;)
Swimmy is doing great, energetic as ever. Perhaps he needs some fresh water, but as I have always maintained, he was bred to live in a puddle, so I try to give him a home as close to his natural environment as possible.
