Dead Fish
My Dot Moms column is up today. Go check it out!
So, the Tank of Death ™ is running the same as ever. After replacing several of the corpses for my son’s birthday, we were doing fine until Friday when the male guppy went to the big Fishbowl in the Sky again.
So we decided to switch to a new filter and add some live plants, in order to help the fish live a little longer.
Yesterday, we hit a new low. We bought a male guppy and another neon tetra. The tetra was on his last rites before he even got inside the tank. Now that’s terrible! We found him stuck to the filter this morning. Ew.
My son, of course, was inconsolable. “Guppy’s dead! Let’s flush him!”
“No, sweetie, that was a tetra.”
“Oh. I want to flush him!!”
Looks like we’ll be making another stop at the pet store after church today.
