I responded to an alarm a couple of days ago and it turned out to be my LFS, sadly the building was fully involved in fire by the time we got there  they lost every animal in the place . anyway for some reason i was thinking about you guys while i was there.
hope everyone has a good holiday and new year.

Ouch Paul, I trust the Insurance will cover the losses...
sorry to hear this, it is always sad to hear about such loss of life.

actually it was alot more than just fish, they lost among other things about 2 dozen puppies,also cats,ferrets the usual pet shop rodents, they had a ton of birds and reptiles including a 4ft alligator. i felt horrible but there was nothing we could do It was blowing thru the roof from front to back when we got there

Oh NOooo, Paul! We've had several LFS/Pet Store tragedies close to folks here on TRT this year. Just awful.
Good to see you, Paul!

Hi Paul, good to see you again.
Sorry bout the fire, it's gotta be so frustrating to not be able to fix a situation like thatI can only imagine that the understanding gained through your reefing experience had to make the loss harder to deal with.
Take Care
