I know how that goes!
I talked my brother into emptying our tank (with four 10" goldfish in it) to a level we could carry to school for show-and-tell when I was in first grade...they were my dad's pride and joy when he could put them out in the pond during the summer months...anyway, the teacher told me to leave them there over the weekend, that they would be OK when I could not find my brother after school to help me get the aquarium back home (he had forgotten about it, and me) and the janitor turned all the electricity off from Friday afternoon until Monday morning. Man, my dad was sad when he came home and heard about it. I still feel bad about it.
