R.I.P. Gabriel

My little buddy Gabe died. I just found him. I know he was very old for a Betta, and I have really been expecting this any day, but it's still so awful to find him like that. He was so smart for a fish. I'm really going to miss him. I guess you guys think it's silly to get so upset over a fish, but he was such a good buddy to me for well over 2 years now. He was really smart for a fish. I can't believe he's really gone.

You took good care of him. I'm sure he loved you as much as a fish can love a person. He lived a long and happy life, and now swims free in that great rice paddy in the sky.

It was so horrible this morning when I went to turn on the tank light. I'd sort of blocked it out and having just gotten up and not thinking about it, I turned on the light and then it hit me again.

He was really old for a betta though. I guess it was just his time. I'll miss his merry wagging though.
