I've nevervhad a suicidal fish...

My LFS owner had one though... it cost him $500+.

(It was his platinum silver arowana. )

His fish just jumped right out of the big tank he was in at my LFS.

Kits are good when they are on sale
DIY is good, too!
Having a spare sponge filter, air tubing, air stone, heater, tub/bucket, etc. is always a smart idea .

Oh, and some used filter media tucked here and there. A couple of my tanks have room for extra cartridges/media so I have some to start a new or emergency tank
