Pleco

As of roughly 10am this morning, my pleco (aka sucker-fish) finally died. He fought hard and well, but death took him afterall.
He was one of my most treasured fishes and the longest fish I have kept to date. I bought him as a small 5 cm baby along with my first aquarium. Staring at the 30cm long corpse, I wondered what went wrong. Me. I caused this. Nope, this isn't a self-blaming exercise, but in all seriousness, I caused his death. I should never have trusted those pacus with him, they were all growing too fast and aggressively.
I will not blog for 14 days and 14 nights.
