who is assigning blame?  i was just mentioning that it seems that these fish 
require more room and quiet quarters.  as i said, all my tanks are community 
tanks.  if i had a nice house with a basement, i could have separate tanks 
for them.  i live in a 1 BR apt. and that's what i can have in terms of tanks 
right now.  and don't worry, scott, the fish are not being abused.
