The Things That Come In Threes

Like bad luck, apparently. Within the past day, I've suffered three fish losses:

1. A six inch long Platydoras costatus in QT for the zoo.
2. Male betta, who I had had for over 2 years, and previous owner for a year.
3. One of my Corydoras aeneus albino breeder females. The other albino is not looking so great either; frayed dorsal fin, sunken in eyes. The other 6 aeneus (not albino) in the tank look great.


The true odd thing is that I recently tried panda cories again from a not-so-great lfs, and all five of them are doing wonderful! May be going back for more...

Sorry to here. Just this morning I had to send my 3yr old African Clawed Frog to his burial grounds. I knew he was going to die this week cause he had a disease I had been fighting for over a month and it just started over taking his entire body this week so.

Anyways I hope this "in Threes" doesn't happen to me cause all my other fish look healthy and happy.


Anyways R.I.P. to my frog and your fish.

a 3 year old Betta is a true Methusalem, so no surprises there; it has had a very long and happy life.
they just don't last long on a regular base.
