A Death in the Chick Tank


“Julius” 2010 – 2011

Earlier this evening, little Julius the Golden Ryukin was found belly up in the Chick Tank after showing signs of illness before I left for work this morning. He enjoyed a short but good life. Tonight we are also saying goodbye to actress Jane Russell, who was 89, and Electric Prunes Bassist Mark Tulin, age 62. Godspeed.

Dead Goldfish Plushie

Sadly, I have found more than a couple of these guys in my aquarium upon returning from a vacation where I entrusted the care of my precious babies to a friend. No need to flush this guy down the toilet! Dead Goldfish measures 7 x 10 inches, with a velvet body and felt fins. Available for just $19.99 from McBittersons Dot Com!

Thanks to Plastic and Plush for the Tip!

One Dead Fish

I got home from California just before midnight after waiting in line for a Taxi at Laguardia airport for – I wish I was making this up – an hour and 20 minutes, only to find / smell not one but two dead fish in the tank, due to overfeeding by their caretaker. It’s nice to know I was missed.
