Rest in Peace, Fred

Our family pet passed on today. Fred the fish "hitched a ride on the porcelain express." The cause of death is unknown at this time, although it might have been due to swimming in untreated Ventura tap water. He was a good fish and had a long life of 9 months in our home. Fred came to us from the Ventura County Fair last August when I won him in the "toss the ping pong ball in the tiny bowl" game. He was a survivor, coming from the fair environment and outlasted his tank buddy, Tina, who was with us for only a few days. Rest in peace, Fred, we will miss you.
