When it comes to dead fish, I can usually just give em' the flush and have no problem whatsoever.

But that's not how it worked with my Mudskippers ];

I spent many long months planning and learn about aquariums so I could rear the little buggers. Mudskippers are just awesome, man. Way cooler then your average goldfish. The little fellas are gobies that spend more of their time on the land then water. The jump around, they skip across water as well, and they like to climb stuff. And as I learned the hard way, they also love Fiddler Crabs- compatibility my butt >,>

But yeah. Ka lost his precious Runt, Med, and Goliath well over 6 months ago. But as I stare at the empty, bone-dry tank sitting in the hallway waiting to be taken back into the basement, I can't help but get all sad. I MISS YOU GRUMPY BUT CUTE FELLOWS

THEY WERE CUTE, DANGIT. HOW CAN YOU SAY NO TO A FACE LIKE THIS

I SUCCESFULLY CARED FOR AN ODD BREED OF FISH FOR OVER A YEAR BEFORE IN A BRACKISH WATER TANK THAT ONLY WAS FILLED A FITH OF IT'S SIZE WITH WATER. I TOOK GREAT CARE OF THE SALINITY AND TEMPERATURES AND MANGROVES AND EVERYTHING. THEY JUST SUDDENLY DIED FROM CAUSES I DO NOT KNOW. GOD, YOU STUPID FISHIES- WHY DO YOU ALWAYS DIEEEE~ YOU BETTER HAVE DIED FROM BEING OLD D<

I miss those buggers...
