Just thought I'd let you guys know he finally died this morning...I kind of didn't expect it because he was doing so well lately. He was at the bottom of the tank and his gills were all puffed out so I don't know if he went down there and couldn't get himself to the surface or what happened.
Suprisingly right not it hasn't bothered me too much, maybe because it was an early morning and first day back to classes and I'm just too tired, or most likely because I've been expecting this for a very long time.
So he died juuust after the 3 year mark, so however old that makes him, he lived a long time and I think he lived a good life.

I'm sorry to hear that he died Sammie. You must have taken very good care of him becuase he lived to be very old. 3 years is a long time for a betta you got at a petstore since they can already be a year old or more when yo buy them. Best of luck with your fish! RIP Fred!

Sorry to read this Sam  I still remember you most for this fish, as you went by "drop dead fred" if I recall when I met you at another forum. So his passing really brings up memories for me as well. Carl |

I am sorry to hear that your fish died. I'm sure he went to the big fish tank in the sky and is enjoying himself.
