    Oh, I forgot that I lost another tank full of fish in 2000. I moved everything including my 125g from NC to VA during winter and the cold / temperature change did them in.

    Here's the first fish I lost.

    I've lost a green chromis, a ocellaris clown, royal gramma, two firefish and a flame angle. The flame angle was the worst to lose since it was pure stupidity on my part. It got sucked into the unprotected intake of an 802 powerhead.

    Afraid to write this, but knock on wood, haven't lost one yet, have had two clowns for nearly a year, and a scooter blenny for about 8 months.
