"I Just Want to Drink Me Some Wine..."

My dear, sweet fishies died. I went to feed them this evening and they were both dead.

Cyrano was at least two years old. He was a foot long and had the most beautiful whiskers in the whole world. Levin was only a year old, but he was eight inches and one of those beautiful gold and white and black speckled koi that are so pretty. They both came when I called them, and Cyrano sometimes would eat from my hand.

Mama is worried that it might be something on the bottom of the pond, since Cyrano definitely was a bottomfeeder and she thinks Levin might have been too; but Maria thinks it's the blue heron from the Mahantango (only if it were the heron, wouldn't it have eaten them instead of leaving them?).

I already miss them so much. RIP, beauties.

But both of them on the same day? That's why I'm worried about it being the pond or something.

It's possible; I dunno. Maybe you can get the water tested? That really sucks.

And the rest of the fish are okay! I have about forty other ones that are goldfish of varying size, from some that have to be about three or four years old to babies from last year. Agh.
