Hmm...actually I think a couple of them were dead the following morning. And the water was all clean, because it was new! I think I just have hopeless luck/skills with fish. Especially goldfish.

Perhaps! =D

Yesh, I try. xd

Well, did you use any de-chlorinator/water softener in the new water or was it straight from a tap? sweatdrop That might explain those deaths. 3nodding

Um...I actually don't remember, it was quite awhile ago. Perhaps eight years.

But that seems likely. The mystery has been solved, possibly! sweatdrop

Argh! I hated having fish, cause of the maintenance and cause they die to easily. gonk

My dad killed a whole fish tank full once, cause he to put a extra 2 gallons in (cause the water was evaporating out some how.) and the damn water didn't change to room temperature enough before he poured it in. gonk

And my mom bought a really expensive goldfish once (I think it cost $15.00) and the damn thing died right after we put it in the tank. stressed

Fish aren't it!! gonk crying xd

*Reminds self to take some pictures of Eva tomorrow.* 3nodding

Actually, My tank pretty much takes care of itself unless it's stirred up... ninja sweatdrop The only maintenance I do on the thing is cleaning out the filter when it doesn't get the right flow. Otherwise, I haven't cleaned out the tank for some time now... even though I should now that all the decorations inside are either floating or lying on the bottom. redface sweatdrop Still haven't done that after the move. gonk

eek Wow... you have bad luck with fish. sweatdrop 3nodding xd

It won't help if you just take pictures, SirhX, you also have to put them to an image host and post the image up here. xp xd

Love your rabbit's name, Jinsei! blaugh Cinnabun... *drool*

--

It was several years ago (I think I was five, so I guess that makes it ten years ago...), when I got my first and sadly, last goldfish (plural, lol). My parents took me down to Chinatown [lol, pure asian-ness] and my dad took me to a little pet shop down the road. He let me pick all different sorts of gold fish, but in the end, I only got to keep five, or was it six? My memory's fading fast... >___<

So, we took them home, had the tank set up and everything... I put them into the tank and fed them and then went to bed. Next morning, they all died... belly-side up... I was really sad when my mother was like, "Your, uh, fish... they...y'know..." crying

Haven't had any other pets since because:
a) My mother doesn't really like pets,
b) I'm allergic to cats and dogs,
and c) sadly, I live in a condominium that does not allow keeping pets...

So, yeah, I don't have a picture of my fish, only a bittersweet memory of them. After they died, my parents put the tank away and it's now used for storing random cleaning things that my mom uses. o__O

Awww!! They're so cute!!

As for having fish, I admit to having them actually. They're my dad's but at least once every year or other year he cleans the tank and the fish end up dying. But yeah the fish are my dad's hobby.

I thought the gonk was perfect for that pic! blaugh xd

@diav- That's so sad...do you want any other pets?

@ets- They're adorable! Puppy dog eyes...even people of the strongest willpower fall beneath the puppy dog eyes.

@izu- Aww, more sad fish stories. Where's the pictures of your dog, Izu? *prod* wink xd

@sirhx/manson- Startling. At first I thought the mouse was Eva, and I had to stare at it for a second. Wait, what's the mouse sitting inside, a sock? And then...omg. I get it. o_o; My friend had a snake once, but then they lost him somewhere in their old house. I think he's still hiding in the garage or something.

I feel sorta rambly today. neutral sweatdrop

Awesome dogs, ETS. 3nodding

I still want to know why nobody seems to have luck with fish... sweatdrop I guess I get the ones that aren't frail but pretty varieties... ninja sweatdrop

Nice snake image. xd

You think that's 'rambly', Jinsei?! eek That's nothing compared to the skill of true ramblers! scream xd Ehh, excuse my outburst. sweatdrop
PostPosted: Wed Jul 20, 2005 9:50 pm


All right, all right. I'm nowhere near as good a rambler as you. This I cannot deny.

I'm gonna dig around for some more pics of my rabbit.
