Zane the 4th

This is our fish Zane the 4th. You might be asking why he is the fourth...well we have now had four Beta fish in a six monthish period. When Matt was deployed the boys begged for a pet, we settled on a fish. Sweet Athen picked blue because it is Matt's favorite color. He also had the privilege of naming him as well and chose Nemo Zane Karas. Zane the first lived for quite some time in his cozy fishbowl. About four months in he started to float sideways and I knew it wasn't long...Matt and I started preparing the boys for what was to come. A few days later we had to flush Zane. So the next day we went to the pet store and got Zane the second. Unfortunately, he only made it one night in the fishbowl. This was hard to break to the boys but we promised another fish. As a family we went to choose Zane the third. We choose a white beta fish and brought him home. We put him in his fishbowl, the boys went down for naps, I went out for some errands and Matt texted me that Zane the third was dead! He only made it two hours. At this point we decided to take a break from fish and a month or so later we picked up Zane the fourth. He has been with us for about 6 weeks and is doing great! The boys love him and we are hoping he sticks around :)
