Goodbye Toeman

So our betta fighting fish named Toeman (I believe it was Caleb that has the credit for the name) passed away a couple of days ago.  He was a good, hearty fish and he will be missed.  Melissa and the kids had a porcelain ceremony for him.  The kids swear he was still swimming when the chain was pulled and that he probably made his way to the ocean "like Nemo."  Pretty sure he had passed, but can never quite shake the though of mutated sewer pets coming back to torment semi-neglectful owners.  If you are still alive Toeman, no hard feelings eh?

That's a fine looking fish, Ian. Is that a pre-demise or post-demise photo? I don't think you need worry about the revenge factor. Fish are notoriously forgiving.

Poor Toeman! Sydney and I had four beta fish at our BYU apartment, (three males and a female) which we inherited from various lab classes. They are fun to have!
