Farewell, Final Candidate.
Well we hope your Saturday was better than Lauren and mine’s. We attended a funeral of Nemo sized proportions. My Beta fish “Final Candidate” died today after an attempt to clean his water vase home. I cleaned his murky water bowl, attempted to feed him and noticed he was acting very strange since I placed him back in his home. He was swimming upside-down, sideways, and anyway but the right way. We’re afraid it might have been brain damage due to lack of oxgen in the transfer from dirty bowl to clean bowl. So sad.
He’d get to the water’s surface, only to be dragged back down to the little pebbles below moments later. We left him to get lunch and told him he could die in peace without anyone to watch him . . . he did just that. Gone is my lively desktop friend.
Here is a photo from the funeral we held for Final Candidate. He lived a good, faithful life. Farewell, friend.

Oh how sad! Is that the one from Jessica’s wedding? I have a suggestion for making them live longer…have a baby and only get around to feeding them twice a week or so…our beta is still alive after about 7 months! Love you guys and miss you!

not that i know anything, but i think you should probably feed your baby more than twice a week…
