	So Angry, my Poor Fish!
AngelZoo Fish Addict Posts: 771 Kudos: 501 Votes: 1 Registered: 16-Dec-2003	So I went to Arkansas for the holiday I'm gone for like 5 days and we have our friend watching our animals while we are gone he's watched them before. But I come home last night, to find the heat OFF (I left it on at about 71) and it's 54 degree's in my home!!! Needless to say, so far I've counted about 5 lost fish, all 3 of my endlers are dead, and 2 of my bettas My poor cats and rats... Lets just say, NO it's not fun living in your own pee and puke... my poor babies!

Specially now that we just found out my fiance has asthma... we already knew he had allergies to everything furry, but now asthma attacks from small furry things though he seems to be ok with our cats now after 4 years. I have heaters in 2 of my bigger tanks, they were ok heat wise, but I don't have heaters in my betta bowls and such.
