Ah what a bummer. It's happened to everybody at some point though so don't feel too bad. Qurrantine is definitely important when adding to established tanks. I was so nervous when I stocked my 125 because I bought half the fish at the Convention and then got the rest 2 weeks later from Dave's Rare Aquarium fish. I just didn't have anywhere to quarrantine that many fish so into the 125 they went. Luckily Dave doesn't sell sick fish.
Nice looking tank BTW.

Some of the fish look like African Cichlids, especially the orange ones and the striped ones in the first pic. Are they? Africans are my favorite by far.

Re: Fish Keepers.
Pareeee, great pics. I really want a good camera.
Jay, I really like your planted tanks. It's something I've always wanted to do but just never have.

Re: Fish Keepers.
I used to have wall to wall fish tanks years ago, but when I was disabled by my chronic migraines I had to get rid of most of them because they take way to much time and brain power. Snakes and rats are pretty mindless in comparison to trying to keep up all the chemistry in reef tanks, cichlid tanks, and all that. Snakes and rats are still a lot of work, don't get me wrong, but I don't have to do all those calculations of supplements, chemicals, blah blah blah.
Right now I just have a little Fluval "Edge" tank with live plants, cherry shrimp, and guppies.

Re: Fish Keepers.
Pareeee, I love the pics! I find that the old camera that I did have just couldn't snap a photo fast enough so they would always come out blurry  But I had 2 Yoyo Loaches and LOVED them. They did such a wonderful job and were super hardy. I had mine for at least 5 years until I had to move and gave them away.
I have a 10, 20, and 32 gallon tanks. None of which are set up anymore But I used to have a huge assortment of fish. I had a Tiretrack eel, Gourami's, Kribensis, Yoyo Loaches, and of course neon tetras. Athough I learned the hard way to NOT put small tetras in with an eel...Luckily I moved the rest over to a different tank. Otherwise I absolutely love fish and hope to pick up the hobby again in the future...maybe get into saltwater.
