Goodbye To My Pet Betta Fish.

Few days ago, I lost one of my Betta pet fishes. I had this Betta fish with me more than 18 months and is the longest surviving Betta fish that I had.

 What attracted me was its long flowing fins that looked like long flowing gown.

It was very graceful as it swam about.

Last few days, it suddenly looked very quiet.

It laid low and only swam up during feeding time.

And finally it was still and didn't rise up again.

Goodbye to my Betta pet fish.
It is time to add some new fishes to my collection.
 This beauty belongs to my friend.
 This fish pond belongs to my sister's garden.

Then God said, "Let the waters teem with fish and other life,
and let the skies be filled with birds of every kind."
(Genesis 1:20, The Living Bible-TLB)

BLESSED CHRISTMAS!
