these are the times that try us, but, something to be learned from each down fall. keep the faith and keep going, the successes are as important as the disasters if we learn. real sorry for your loss.

That sux Dave. Where'd the ich come from? HOPEFULLY, this will change your position on quarantining new fish. I NEVER trust the QT procedures in a LFS.
