Serious reply to Sunny Sister: I'm sorry about your beta. The fish probably don't care about us at all, but we care about them. This describes most of my relationships, so I guess I'm used to it. As a kid, I never got used to losing them. It doesn't matter that they're 'just fish'. WE aren't. Maybe it's just the little guy's time, but might somebody at the fish store have an idea how to help?
