It was a long run ...

When we got our salt water tank from crocuta and oats_a_plenty, it came with a single fish. A goby, that I think came from the tank's owner before them. The goby even survived our tank crashing earlier this year, and our completely replacing the sand base in the aquarium after that.

Well, the goby passed away earlier today. It had been regularly coming out to eat its fish flakes each day until earlier this week, when it started hanging way back in the rocks but still going after its food when the flakes drifted nearby.
