Omg! OmG! NoOoOOO not MOOOOO! Tears filled my eyes when I read this.

So sorry to hear about this Deb. Your success with Moo was also the reason why I decided to get a Moorish Idol, I named Chewie, even though I loved the name Moo. Chewie fav food was brown zoo's & sponges. Miss the guy.

I always looked so forward to seeing Moo when I came to Calgary. He was by far my favorite fish of all time. I had never seen a Moorish grow to the size Moo did. You should be really proud of your success. You took great care of Moo, Deb. Don't beat yourself up. It wasn't your fault. Moo know's you loved him.

Moo will be dearly missed by us all. Rest in the big ocean in the sky, Moo.


*SUPER HUGS DEB*

Thanks guys..

At least we can now dismiss this as a Moorish Idol thing - Apu, my Pakistani butterfly died today. I can't find anything wrong with my tests except low alk about 2. I had just started new salt, the new Kent, but I got it from J&L and thought the problems were over with that. I will test the new mix tonite.

Holy Cow Deb - I'm really sorry this is happening to you. Is there any chance of lack of oxygen? I am quite sure that both of those fish are somewhat sensitive to low oxygen and IIRC you recently bought a new skimmer so just wondering if there is any chance it is not putting enough oxygen into the water. I know shot in the dark but ..................

Thanks Ruth, but no, we haven't received the new skimmer yet and the Euro is still on there working fine. I have to rule out coral starvation as well, as it wouldn't happen that fast, both fish were healthy a few days ago.
