These are some of my recent fish-they died after a water change.  Ive been keeping fish for 20 years but I guess I have a lot to learn still.  The photo of 3 fish was taken around last Xmas.  The big one was taken a couple of days before they croaked.  I had the 2 little one 7 months and the big one a year.

Sorry to hear about the losses 

I guess its really d*mb to be upset about a fish-but people dont relize how much time and effort go into to creating a living tank!  Its really cool when they first recognise you, and then they greet you like little puppies every time they see you!  Its like loosing a work of art you worked months on to complete, but also like loosing a good friend!

I had a beautiful calico die and I buried her under a rose bush I had planted.  The nest year the most colorful pink roses proliferated-it as if her spirit bloomed out thru the roses!
