Well, it finally happened...

Farewell, Fishie.

My final tiger barb, the last of them all, is gone. He went bye-bye today, but we knew it was going to happen.

He'd been doing the backstroke for quite a while and miraculously kept swimming, but he started to look really bad so we knew the time was close.

We've had this fishie for a long time... since at least two places ago, so probably about 3 years or so...

So long, Fishie.

It's the end of an era. I went from a forty gallon tank, to a forty gallon tank + a small two gallon tank, to just a two gallon tank. Now to none. I've decided not to keep fish anymore. I get too sad when they die.

Poor Fishie!

I'm sure he's swimming in his aquatic heaven...wherever that is.

And, hey! Ciao, bella - I am off to Vegas this morning. Have yourself a very Merry, J.

Sorry about your fish, jozy. It's sad to lose a pet.

Um, btw, don't EVER get a dog or a cat, m'kay?

I'm sorry for your loss, too...although any fish that lives 3+ years couldnt have found ANY better home out there. I yelled at my brother for killing a fly (in a slow, tortured manner) last night...even THAT broke my heart. So I know just what you're talking about.

Awww.. as the long time mommy to two cute little fur babies (Rocky the chinchilla - 4 yrs old and Rusty the guinea pig also 4 yrs old) I totally sympathize with your loss. Last February Rusty's brother - Trout died and I nearly crumbled having to take him out of his cage. I'm also the mommy of Max the wonder Yorkie and if anything ever happened to him - oh just UGH!

Take care and lots of hugs girlie!
