I was wondering why all the bad things seem to happen JUST as your away from your fish (even for a few hours) so when you get back your left with an unpleasant surprise! I've seen tons of posts about how people were away for even less than an hour and when they get back their fish are all dead or their ammonia spiked for an unknown reason, etc.
My dad recalls back when I was too little to remember, just around the time when we just started the 72 gallon, we went outside to see the fireworks for maybe 2 hours (it was July 4) and when we got back, all our fish were swimming upside down.
It's just weird. I know fish can die when left alone for multiple days, but a few hours without doing anything harmful? It's like the lord is playing tricks on us.
