Bye-bye, orange platy

The last Orange Platy kicked the bucket this morning. I said good-bye, and I gave her a proper flusha-funeral.



To tell you the truth, I'm kind of "over" the whole fish tank thing - cleaning it does not rank high on my list of fun things to do. Now I have to decide whether to get another companion for Tattoo Molly, or just wait for Molly to kick it, and then stow the tank.



Decisions, decisions.

I have a short attention span for fish as well. They are a pain in the ass to move. Since you have waning interest, I'd suggest letting Molly do her thing alone until she goes belly up. Perhaps, if you're feeling especially responsible, you could call the pet store and ask if you can give them their fish back. Make up a story. Say you're going to move or something. They don't need to know you are bored. Or you can post a "free to good home" thing in their shop. That will get Molly in a tank with other fishies *and* get you out of the fish ownership biz.

Maybe the cats will take care of this problem for you. They iz helpful that way sometimes.

I hate for her to be all alone - trying to find someone to take her is a great idea! One of my co-workers has a tank .........

Oh, and the cats have actually been amazingly good about the tank. They're definitely interested, but I have yet to come home and find fish bones on the floor.
