The Demise of the Goldfishes.

The Father Figure has once again failed to keep any his goldfishes. This time round, his failure was almost immediate, for he had bought sickly goldfishes, five in total, for $3 each. They're scales were falling off, one had a punctured eye, and their body was infected with disease.

They were already weak, and would have benefitted greatly if he had bothered to condition the fish tank he was planning to keep them in, the day before.

Alas, his decision to keep new pets was once again on IMPULSE, and he unthinkingly dumped the five poor fishes into unconditioned WARMed-by-weather tap water with no pump installed.

Needless to say, the fishes flipped from their bellies and died within 15 minutes from thermal shock and oxygen deprevation.

This house is not suited for pets of any kind, unless they do not need any care- Like SeaMonkeys!

Speaking of SeaMonkeys, my Artemia count for the moment is 5/50!

I found out that more had hatched when DunMan High was peering through my jugs and did a count when I told her there were only 4 Artemians in there.

Let's just hope more hatches in the coming days!
