Sky-boy was the first (and only so far) fish that I lost. He was a little Rosy Barb, the runt of the tank, and never had a chance to grow.

I had a case of ick in the tank, and though treatment saved my other fish, Sky-boy just wasn't strong enough to pull through.

I came home from work on 4-21 to find him plastered against the filter intake. I buried him in the backyard under some moss, and even painted a headstone.

His companion Jootsie misses him.
