    our jewel cichlid died this evening. [icon_e_sad.gif]
    this morning when i feed the tank i noticed that he was very pale and bairly moving. i moved him to a quarantine tank. i checked the water parameters and they are 0,0,15. all the other fish in the tank is doing/looking good. he was allready an adult when we got him about 5yrs ago, so maybe age just caught up with him.

    they're my favorite too...someday i would like to have a breeding pair.

    he definitely added some color to the tank.
