Rest In Peace Little One

I cant belive it! My precious Nalani Elu is gone! R.I.P Nalani. Rest your bones in God's hands, and I pray that you're gone because of old age, and not something I did.

Nalani Elu was my very very first ever pet. My Red Betta fish. His name took me hours to come up with..Nalani means "Heavens" in Hawaiian. Elu means "Beautiful" or "fair" in Native American. I have a picture, it's not of Nalani, but the betta looks identical to him.


I cried alot for him today. I've never known anyone or anything to die before, so it was quite upsetting. I just hope that I did okay as an adoptive mom. (hee hee) Rest in peace my sweet Nalani Elu.

I still have other fish around the apartment, but none of them seem as precious because he was my first. My other fish are: (in order of when I got them)
Cornelius (blue betta)
Hannibal (cichlid)
Fishbert (cichlid)
Kitoko Akio (multi-colored betta) (his name means beautiful bright boy)
Peter (Plecostamus)
Simon (Oscar Cichlid)

Hey there, sorry to hear about your fish :(. Just wanted to say Merry Christmas! haha yeah... I know I'm horrible at blogging. I gave a little mini-explanation in my last post, not that it's a good excuse. Thanks for continuing to check the site though! Makes me feel worthwhile:)

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! NOT NALANI! I REMEMBER THE DAY YOU GOT HIM! You were so excited to pick a name and you searched for hours for the perfect one. Was he last residing in the lava lamp fish tank? Poor dude. Oh yeah... your kinda turning into a fish lady..
R.I.P Nalani Elu!
