Gooood moooorning CDR.
Last night I dreamed of a CDR member. I swear I have !
No, it was not Adam.
It was @Yvonne G .
I dont know why I dreamed of you Yvonne, but in my dream you visited me and speak German to me. :eek::)
After a while you left in a bus ( in my dream ).
Strange dream, isn`t it ? But it was a lovely dream. That`s what counts.:)

And we're home. Bit of a disaster in our tropical aquarium. It looks like the heater failed, probably only a few says ago, but we have a lot of dead fish. :(

There's a tiny number of survivors. We have a spare heater in the roof and are hoping we can save them.
Sorry to hear that Linda. I came back from holidays last year to find only one black cory catfish alive in my aquarium, was very sad. We never quite understood what happened as everything seemed to be working ok. Welcome home though!

We're down to 3 black phantom tetras, a corydora and a bristle nose catfish.

The bristle nose looks in very bad shape.

All the others, including our two 15 year old clown loaches, are dead :( It's really sad. So many fish gone. :(
So, SO sorry!!!! :(

Such things always frighten me when I move far from home, and leave Oli alone.

Positive news on the fish survivors.

We cleaned out the tank and pump and replaced some cold water with fresh, warm water, replaced the heater, and added an extra air stone.

Our Corydora, which is pretty ancient, is behaving like nothing ever happened.

The three black phantom tetras finally found each other about half an hour ago and are looking much happier.

The ancistrus (aka bristle nose catfish) is dreadfully blotchy which is a sure sign of stress - they're an even grey when happy and go blotchy white very quickly when stressed. However, she is moving round the tank feeding on algae now.

So we have our fingers firmly crossed and hope we still have them all in the morning.
