One of my Kuhli loaches died yesterday...he had somehow swam up the filter and out of the tank. I found him all shriveled up on my desk...how horrible. I had named him Donut(after a character on Red vs. Blue) and the most horrible thing about his death was the fact that his dead body was in the shape of a donut! *cries, sniff*
Donut's nametag has been added to the fish cemetary next to Deep Thought's (my little algae eater).
I did buy another fish the other day though. He is another type of algae eater called an otocinclus...and man does he do his job. He ate nearly all the algae off the skull decoration in one day! I've decided to name him Doc Ock, but he doesn't get an official name tag until I've had him a week(just to make sure he stays alive).

;; My fishies /always/ die. 'Cept John. And he would 'dance' whenever I'd come into the room and put my head at the tank.
Thats 'cause he was scared, love.
Or that. ;; Sorry about your fishies passing and I toast to your new family member. Yay Doc.

*Salutes* Donut's pinkness will always be remembered. Even if the fish itself wasn't pink >>

Don't worry Spi, I don't mind if you find it funny. It is amusing if you get past the horrible-ness of it. Kuhli loaches are totally awesome, they move kinda like snakes. But now Caboose is a bit more shy than he used to be now his friend is gone. I'll have to get him another friend...perhaps I'll name him Wyoming...muwhahaha.
Thank you everyone who posted. The thing that made me the most sad about his death is how he died all alone behind the tank and no one knew...I would feel so alone if I died like that.

RIP Donut. May you enjoy your new home in fishy heaven. *huggles Emma* ;.; I'm so sorry about your fishy... My little sister had fish... but... uh... I ... well, killed them. ^^; I don't know how but everytime I fed them one would die... So, yeah. No more fish. The scary thing was... we stopped feeding the last one and it lived for six months and when my sister fed it... it died a few hours later. But sorry about your fishy. Congrats on Ock though! ^^
