Fish

Courtney got a fish tank from Ethan for Christmas.  We went and bought her a betta fish, set up the fish tank, and the next day the fish was dead.  Ugh.  But there is a 14-day warranty on the fish so we took the dead fish back to the store and got 4 other fish.  Courtney took them home, we cleaned the tank, conditioned the water, and put the fish in.  Within a few days, they were...dead.  It was pretty gross because they had spots all over them, starting having seizures (yes, fish can have seizures and it's weird) and their fins disintegrated.  I forgot to keep the receipt so we couldn't take them back and, honestly, Courtney was so traumatized that she didn't want any more fish.  But it was a good try and Ethan was her hero for getting her the tank.

These were the last 2 that lasted a few hours longer than the other ones.  Poor things.


On a funny note, one of Courtney's friend's changed Courtney's name in her contacts to "Fish Killer."  haha!
