Came home to find......

I work on the road all week, and my wife does a WONDERFUL job of caring for the tank while I am away. Anyway, I,(we) have been battling hair algae for the past 2 months. I came home today to find it is almost gone!!!
But alas, I found my huge turbo snail (a little smaller than my fist) securely sucked into the intake of a Rio power head. Needless to say, it was dead.
I hate these "Good news / Bad news" scenes.
