Fish Update

An update on our fish tank: The master of the tank, Angel, finally passed away. We got a red-tailed shark we called Shark Bait and he decided he wanted to be master of all things water. Not only did he annoy Angel until it was found stuck to the filters, but it picked and fought with the other 10 fish we had bought of various species until all but 2 were gone!! With another child on the way, we decided it was not worth the stress and decided to put the massive 75 gallon tank in storage. But what do you do with the 3 fish left? My husband wanted them to take a ride on the porcelain express, but I couldn’t handle that. So in the process of emptying the tank, I finagled all three into a little bucket and contacted a local aquatics store that said they would buy them from me. In the process of getting the kids in the car and finding plastic wrap to put on top of the bucket, Shark Bait sadly committed suicide! He jumped right out of the bucket and landed on the desk. I came back to find him barely breathing and unable to resuscitate! I guess the porcelain express sounded better then the pet shop!
