Today, with a heavy heart, my girlfriend and I are saying goodbye to Jax, our beloved albino oscar. He was a great little fish, and the first pet I got in my new life of sobriety. He was also Katie's first fish. She had no idea fish could actually have personalities but I promised her "wait til these oscars prove you wrong" and she quickly understood and fell in love. He seemed to struggle a bit his entire life, never ate much, stayed little (for an oscar) and was frequently sick and needing to be medicated. But he was almost always the first to the front of the tank whenever we approached. He was loved and will be missed greatly.
Thank you for some good years little buddy, rest easy.
