Stupid me, another stupid mistake.

Ok, i am the most idiotic person in the world, I Converted my 5gal into a

grow out tank yesterday for my platy and guppy fry, also in the tank i

have two wild guppies (too small to eat fry) and two otos, at first i saw

about thrity fish, then I saw only 20 or so, then when i woke up this

moring, i saw only six. It didn't even dawn on me that it might be a good

idea to check the filter. Anyway, I got lucky, both wild guppies were still

alive, i only lost one platy fry aswell, I didn't even think of covering the

filter intake. Well, i guess you learn from your mistakes. I covered the

intake with some screening. Things seem to be going better now, and

everyone who survived my stupidity is ok. I can't believe i was so

stupid
