24 hours later and he lives. At least in people surgery they say that is the threshhold for making it out of danger. He's swimming a whole lot more today, even ate a bit. Spent most of yesterday asleep I think. He was doing that steady eye front to back thing and not moving most of the time.

I'll watch the water close, in fact that's how it all happened. I had what looked like an oily scum on the top and the water was a bit cloudy. Couldn't get rid of it so I was emptying the tank and scrubbing it out. Lots of theorys on where it came from, lotion from the wife, mercury from the thermometer some residue from the new filter/tank.

Oh, he's the tank master. 6 years old. Can't go losing a guy like that. My coworkers laugh at me, but there's more to these guys than meets the eye. Here's a odd story on how I found the poor guy.

I had steped outside to get the guarden hose set up and when I came in I notice our little blue acting funny. Of course I talked to him, ( asked him why he as swimming so fast) when he swam to the other side and stopped next to my big orange fella who was stuck on the siphon.
