R.I.P. Pepperie- we cannot recall the exact date we lost him but it was the day after peter, with best intentions, cleaned our gravel for the first time with a tubing device and freaked us all out when the water level kept lowering. was it the shock that killed him or was it THE PLANT? we'll never know.
R.I.P. Dottie (or was it Spottie?)- she died with her mouth open. today (16 Oct.) will always be remembered as the day Dottie shimmied into fishie heaven. during her last couple of days her health deteriorated rapidly; not to mention the fright she got when the evil geckos pounced on the tank. oh well, now she's in a better place, in the front yard.
RIP The Orginal Blackie- he died on the floor with bloodshots in his eyes. it's been a terrible week for us fishes.. losing two of our own in three days; we're fish, not flies, damnit! blackie was the first one to swim through the scary scuba diver, a brave soul he was.
RIP The Fish Formerly Known as Stripey- tabunn, the grief-stricken fish just couldn't handle being away from his okaasans. he grew up so quickly, losing his stripe in just months. there was always the suspicion that the real stripey passed long ago and peter replaced him with a non-striped fish. i s'pose we'll never know for sure. rest in incredible peace, whoever you were.
RIP Blackie Junior- he missed his mother too much.
RIP Goldie- she was a most beautiful speciman; possessed the likeness of the hottie goldfish in walt disney's "pinnochio."
RIP GIMPIE - you will be missed the most dearly.
