Eddie is gone!

So our beloved Beta fish, Eddie, passed away sometime through the night. We found him belly up this morning. Noah was devasted. He loved this fish very much. We had quite a few tears before school this morning. Eddie had been sick for over a week now and we were surprised that he hung on this long.
We promised him after we get the tank cleaned up we will go and get another fish. Not a beta (they are really hard to take care of and need to be by themselves...not in a tank with others like we did). We have 6 cherry barbs, 3 cory doras and 5 loaches...oh yeah and snails that keep mutliplying. We started with 2 that came in with some plants by accident and now we have 6!!!
Anyway...hopefully the other fish will survive whatever sickness is in our tank!!
Have a great day!

I am sorry for your loss.
Maybe it's time to step it up and get a dog.

I don't think we are ready for that yet. I think we will stick to fish for now...see if we kill all the others first!
