Well on one hand it's a damn shame to see such a beautiful fish die (and many more tropical species), but on the other hand they don't belong there anyway.

He was in my 1600 gallon pond. He was like a big wet dog. Used to come to the surface and open his mouth while I would literally pour a cup of pellets down his throat. Mixed blessings on seeing him go.

Here's one time I had to move him to a holding tank.
