Knowing I needed to be on the offensive, but did not have any strength left, my power company shut down the tank and all the inhabitants were wiped out. (Nice of them, wasn't it??? ;-/). However, the tank still existed...and the collective was still active. My local lfs was in on the assimilation program and supplied a tank full of healthy new species. Neeedless to say, I could no longer resist...the tank is now repopulated and my assimilation is complete.
You have been warned...
