Some people Disgust me

*WARNING THIS IS A RANT*




So today i drop by my work on my day off to pick up same turbos and crickets, only to find our main showcase tank complety empty and everything scattered around the store. Apparently some idiot drop some Copper pennys in the night before in an effort to wipe out the tank... Seriously people who does that?!?!?! so anyways someone called in sick so they where short staffed so i offered to spend my day helping fix this mess. big water changes lots of carbon Cuprisorp then fixing the overflow (damn hang on boxes lost its suction lol) anyways 5+ hours later its looking better now we will see what the damages are tomorrow (thanks god they found the pennys right away)but i just can get over how cruel people can be, i dont know who did it and why, maybe they had a grudge against the store who knows? i just think its pitiful someone would harm living creatures just for the fun of it or because of a grudge. somtimes the human race disgusts me

99% sure they couldnt its a 125gal on a tall stand i dont think they could reach and the number of pennies in there i doubt it was

A terrible thing. I hope that the fish pull through.

(just realized i posted this in the wrong section can a mod move please? :P ) and fish seem ok just really worried about the corals we have TONS in there

I know where I would like to shove some pennies. I would first put them in a hot fire. That is so sad. Why would someone do that? I had no idea penny did such a thing.

an excess of copper can be deadly to several species, not to mention the bacteria and grease thats all over money

[BubbaGump_59]

i think what we've done will save most of it with all the carbon and Curpisorb in there + the water changes today and ill test the water tomorrow and most likely do another smaller one tomorrow to be safe. im not so much worried anymore we handled the whole thing pretty well, just now more pissed off then anything :P

Sorry to hear about your situation, I hope everything works out for you. A pet peeve of mine is when I see kids or adults bang on the aquarium glass.
