Well, I've mentioned a couple of other forum threads how or the last year and a half my 100 gallon bow front aquarium has really been neglected. Due to health issues for bot my self and my wife. Well, through it all I had 2 tough little guys make through it all. No filtration except water movement in the tank from power heads and the water being topped off with tap water. The heater remained steady at 78 degree F. I hate it that I put these animals through it all and I did loose a substantial number of fish and corals. But, my health just did allow me to do anything except try to get better. I had a mild stroke and a heart attack, both with in 3 months of each other. I've been working on getting better all this time and now I think I'm up to the task of putting the tank back together. I have a good team of doctors keeping a close eye on me and on a drug regiment to help me avoid a repeat.

So, I want to share with you the 2 fish that made it through thick and thin we me. When I got these they were the exact same size. I think they have now sexed themselves and become a pair.

So, without further delay, here are my 2 clowns who are stronger than Superman.

Sorry to hear about your health. My husband has also had a heart attack and open heart surgery so I understand the recovery process. Glad to see the two clowns still hanging tough with you.
 
Thanks for the kind words of encouragement. Yeah these two little guys have a special place in my tank as it's as much theirs as it is mine. I think a snail or 2 may have made it too. As for me, I still have too much to do to let things get me down. LOL It does get old going in every couple of months for some ultra sounds or a MRI or some other test they can throw at me.

Now to get this tank fixed up so these little fish have it better. I hope to start the sump today and I know I've missed some of the crud so I may have a crud storm for a while. :)
