    Oh man. Sorry for the loss man. I've been snorkeling in a "school" of SM's. Cool, and hungry fish.

    Not to burst a bubble, but at least you can get a new fish after you get that tank moved and stable again.:)

    Ugh, he was so close, yet so far. Well he had a good life in a predator free environment.

    One question, why did you name him Sargent Johnson? I kind of have a hunch considering you are 17 and I'm 18...but I want to hear from you.

    Sorry to hear about your Sargent Major! They are cool fish, as I have two large Sargent Majors in my tank.
    How big was yours?
    A ten gallon tank is a very difficult aquarium size to maintain, not to mention providing for and caring foir livestock. Alot can go wrong in that small a tank and before you find out what happened you have lost one or more animals in your tank.
    Being an experienced reefer can help but for those just beginning the marine hobby, a larger tank will provide better chances of success and enjoyment!
    Sorry again to hear of the loss as it is never a happy time for anyone...you never want to hear news like this!

    Sorry, that sucks when you lose a fish that was there from the beginning.
