is it in rigor? if not, keep it in habitable environment.

I am. Though, in the immortal words of Monty Python, "it has ceased to exist". I'm gonna let it run for a few hours before disposing of it. I've been in contact with the vendor, so it shouldn't be an issue there. I'm just really sad.

They will have to send you another one. Sorry for your loss

Sadly, I'll probably just take a refund. These don't come around all too often. Besides, it is too risky to ship during the holiday rush.

 

[JoJosReef]

Did they ship in sand or just a plastic bag?

Sand. It was well packaged. Just ice cold.

Thanks. I'm hoping it'll spring back to life, but I know that ain't gonna happen. I'm sitting here looking at the life support on the bucket and it feels like I'm pulling the plug on grandma.

Having just went through the loss of 9 fish, I feel ya there. Spent days staring at my QT wondering if I'm helping or torturing

In this case I'd end up leaving it on for a while though.. Never know..

Yeah, time for a nap. I'll wait until I get up to be disappointed. Lol

 

[Stang67]

I'm so sorry.

 

[Fish Styx]

Yup... still dead. I'm waiting for the go ahead from the vendor to discard the specimen and let me know if he has any others in stock. If so, I'm gonna take a crack at overnighting another at some point next week.

In other news, I still haven't gotten a shipping notification for the RFA I ordered, so that will likely come next week now, too.

Man, that's a beautiful fish. Leopards are hard shippers :-(

Burial at sea:

Wait, you flushed him with a bidet?

It's a dual purpose throne.

The funny thing is that, right now, it looks like the Wally World mug from Christmas Vacation. It's very hard to feel solemn when this is the setting for your "funeral":

The old thread name was cheesier than Chester Cheetah. I don’t know what is in this thread or why it is always on top (it’s okay, don’t explain it can be your secret).

As we know it made my eye twitch and gave me a little shudder (kinda like the word ‘moist’ does for some people) every day.

Now it is not cheesy but feels awkward and it makes the twitch worse because I still expect cheesy and it is like Jason from Friday the 13th… I can’t outrun it... It is always there.

Anyway… carry on
