Life is ironic

About 6mo's ago I bought 5 fish, 4 of which died within a month. I believed the connection was to either changing the water or letting the water temperature getting too cold, so #5, a little neon, has been swimming around in a rather algae covered tank for several months now. I had debated flushing him but did not like the thought of ending the life of my sole survivor. Today I finally decided to change the water. He's presently side-swimming.

Hooray for the survivor.
Our fish haven't fared so well... no survivors left. Have you tried a placastamus? those are a lot of fun.

I think I need one to control our algae; however, if our survivor kicks the bucket in the next day or so it won't be necessary. :-p
