Orange
For a while there, we dubbed her Nemo, but the name didn’t stick. Then I think her title became, orange fish, ’cause, well …
Somewhere down the line, she transitioned to Orange, and Orange, she stayed.
She’s lived with her roommate, Pleco,
for I don’t know how long, but they’ve on again, off again bickered for YEARS. BFFs to STAY AWAY FROM ME to forever buddies to GAAAAA. It’s comical to watch.
There’s a joke within my family since the Christmas Dad was gifted The Puppy Wall where I declare, I’ll be adding my aquarium pals to that group of cuties …
ha … smile pretty !!
Orange began a vertical swim about a year ago, and at the time, Husband and I casually commented, when Orange and Pleco go, we’ll FINALLY get rid of that old tank, replace with a shiny new, or put that space to better use ororor …
I’m pretty sure Orange is going to leave us soon. She’s been fighting the good fight, but it’s looking like, it’s time. And I know she’s just a fish, but she’s been in my life for a whole lotta days, happily greeting me every a.m. as I sprinkle her breakfast …
boo.
I’m going to miss you, Orange.

Maybe we’ll get that shiny, new tank after all.
