Rest in Peace Fishzilla

Back in August of 2005, I posted about our goldfish, Fishzilla. He was a fish that was bought, along with about a dozen others, to feed to our snake. He was rescued, due to his pretty colors, and thrown into our ecosystem 10 gallon tank. I don't have any idea how old he was. He was at least around 5 years old. Anyway, he died today. It was really strange. Teresa and I had looked at him on Sunday and noticed that he had grown quite a bit. I wanted to take more pictures and post them here. But, now I can't. This is one of the images from August 2005. He was much larger on Sunday. Oh well, I guess it was he time. He led a good long life for a fish who was bred for food. He will now "live on" as he contributes to the ecosystem. Tomorrow we are going to buy more feeder goldfish and dump them in the tank. Only the strong ones will survive.
