Remember the other day when I wrote about Dory's untimely demise? Well, we went out the next day and got Dory II (Cruise Control) ... and Dory II joined Dory in that Great Aquarium in the Sky two days later. I caught a crab snacking on her, too, in the morning.
Then Pinky went fins-up in the night and I found a crab munching on her one morning.
Then the very next day Flamey checked out and I literally had to wrestle her masticated body away from a very aggressive crab.
I'll tell ya, those crabs are eating like kings.
I think the problem is ich, which is a fairly common fish disease that I think Dory I brought into the tank with her and Dory II then supported by bringing in reinforcements. Both Pinky and Flamey (shut up -- Zoe named them) were showing symptoms of it before they bought the fish farm, and now two of my remaining three fish are acting a little ich-y.
I'm ready for the carnage to end. I'm asking Death to take a vacation from my fish tank.
I'm running out of euphemisms for "the fish died"!
