RIP Catnip

In a completely unrelated incident to my pond's fish all dying, the first fish I ever had, the black moor Catnip, died some time today of old age (And possibly tiger barbs). He was 7 or 8 years old at the time.

 

This is the only picture I have of him. Pretty fish, ain't he?

This is something what he looked like when he was younger:

And Google image's approximation of him as an ancient fish.

Except about 8 inches long. And uglier.

Nope, not young in the least. He was actually a pretty miserable fish when I had him in the pond, so I took him inside and, after living in a bucket for a week to recuperate, he lived happily among the tiger barbs who promptly tried to eat his tail.

Poor fishey :sad:

 

A few months ago I had a angelfish that was around 8 years old go. I liked my fish, but after 8 years and seeing how an 8 year old angel fish looks I accepted that it was its time. Always sad, but smaller fish don't age too well (from my experience).
