A sad morning.
Woke up to find one of my zebra's had died.
I think I know the cause. I feed them a wide variety of food and if the pellets are too big (Tetra Min tropical tablets and Hikari Massivore Delite) I usually break it up into little pieces but this time I only broke them in half. Lesson learned the hard way! Well I think one of the pellets/tablets blew into a cave and I saw a zebra follow behind it...not sure if its the same one but I think my zebra died from gluttony!
Here are a few pic of the deceased fish....its not like it matters but I think its a female, what do you think? Ken

Belly shot; notice the dark areas on its belly (is that its stomach?) and side near fins, i think he eat too much and its stomach burst. And I'm not sure about the redness near its anal fin....
