More bad news

Well I lost my new blue tang to my powerhead. My dumbass took the foam shield off. I hope this bad luck ends QUICK. First my tank leaking and now my new fish dies withing 2 days. I guess "when it rains, it pores". I am new to this hobby and please tell me that I am not the only one that goes through this shit.

Re: More bad news

Fish get taken by powerheads all the time, it seems. Hopefully your luck will turn soon. Sorry for your loss. Just keep the intakes covered from now on .

I like your attitude, "lets keep it going" . That is how I feel. This hobby is rewarding in the long run.

Salty,buddy your luck runs like mine.
Hate to hear about your tang,and your angel Rigo.
The best way to deal with bad luck is to just fight through it.
