Our Fish Died...But It's Going to Be Okay


It turns out that Thursday night was really freaking cold...maybe the coldest night of the winter so far. Unfortunately for the Flahuvans, the heat of our building was mysteriously turned off on Thursday night. When we got home from Leah & Jason's house late, we just bundled up quickly and hopped in to bed wearing several layers (and a hat in Matt's case).

We noticed that JoJo 3's water was very cold and he wasn't moving very much. In hopes of saving him, we moved his bowl next to the heater in hopes that it would turn on during the night. Alas, it did not, and when we got up in the morning we realized that JoJo 3 didn't make it (and the heat never went on).

We told a lot of people on Friday what had happened, including a couple of other people who live in our building. Turns out everyone's heat was off the whole night and no one really knows why. Anyways, there was a knock on the door this afternoon and it was our neighbor, Alan with a new Beta fish. He said it's from the building because they felt bad. SO NOW WE HAVE JO JO 4! We usually mourn our fish for a few months at least before getting a replacement, but I think we can accept this one early! Meet JoJo 4 - isn't he pretty?
