RIP Max

I came downstairs this morning and went to feed my two bettas before I left for work, and found Max (the pretty boy in the icon, my first and favorite fish) on the bottom of his tank; he'd probably been gone for a couple of hours. I'm sad, but I'm not truly surprised. He was probably close to three years old, his color had been fading for a while, and he'd been spending more and more time hiding in his cave. He'd recently developed a true fungus infection on his tail, and I'd moved him a couple of days ago to a smaller hospital tank to treat him while I sanitized his normal 5-gallon; last night the poor little guy was just hanging out on top of his plant and ignoring food and all attempts to get him to perk up.

I can think of many, many other ways I'd prefer to start my morning. =(

sorry to hear that.

I owe you some CDs, and will hopefully get them in the mail tomorrow or Thursday. Sorry for the delay.

I'm so sorry for your loss... Watching my betta begin losing his colour made me really sad, and I knew it was the end, then.

*hugs*

No worries about Strangelove. It was pretty icy that night.

Good to know I'm not that late on the CDs. Might revise the playlist one more time.

It is. :P I guess a little suckier for the pets, but still. :P
(Do I still owe you CD swap CDs? Mine may be a few days late due to insanity ... I'm so sorry about this)
