Hole in the head

Lost him overnight. Sometimes I just don't get it how a fish that is perfectly healthy one week in a tank that always has good water parms no aggression and a good varied diet can end up sick and dead for seemingly no reason.

Really starting to toss around the idea of just having my big 265 tank and a hospital tank and selling everything else once the 265 is finally up and running.

It's an unfortunate part of keeping fish.  There many reasons why a fish can die suddenly, and sometimes you won't ever know the reason.  I've bagged up perfectly healthy fish to take to a store, and they've died on the way.  It sucks, but it's the tradeoff for the enjoyment you get from keeping them.

Yeah, just sucks sometimes. Especially this one because I lucked out and found this Pheno right after I had lost the Pheno I got from Josh at the Jan auction. So that's two nice phenos I've lost this year. Bums me out.
