Well I had the kids over today and while I was doing some maintenance they knocked over my bucket.
Inside this particular bucket was the tiger loach. I was doing a 50% water change and decided to re-arrange my decor as the driftwood was ready to go in. This movement really had the tiger loach going ballistic and attacking any and all it could (the angel had no room to escape with only 1/2 the normal water level).
4 gallons goes splash, 25watt heater shatters, and one of my fellow renters (renting a house) has his limited edition printings stored right under my room...looking at possibly $100-$500 per each piece of art. The tiger was trampled by my little girl...DOA (the fish).
...so instead of spending my evening reading a book to the kids and finishing my 3-stage amplifier circuit for school I enjoyed mopping, sopping, drying towels, and trying to explain to my housemate how I'll have to make monthly payments to him if he finds any water damage. I guess renter's insurance would be handy to have right about now. Atleast they missed splashing the computer I had JUST finished building by a few inches.
I guess I now have room for a replacement fish...the tiger loach was very nice and active (well downright mean really) but I don't think I'll get anther tiger.
