One of my fish has died! Details of how this fishicide occured are sketchy, but the first suspicion has to be a brutal assault by one of the fish on Apostolicam. I've stuck 'Police Line Do Not Cross' tape all around the fish tank and sealed off the area, erecting a small floating tent to house some forensic fish to investigate. I don't know how it happened but eye witnesses accounts suggest that the assault occured after Apostolicam suggested that Mass in the Extraodinary Form was "just a load of Latin gobbledegook" and he hated it when the Priest celebrated Ad Orientem because he "turns his back on me." One of the other fish took exception to Apostolicam's misunderstanding and lost his temper and fishously attacked him. When I arrived on the scene Apostolicam was unable to swim and was floating around on his back and side struggling to breathe. Please pray for him in his journey in the next life and his journey in this life down the pipes of the toilet and sewer sytem of Brighton. Flushing him was not easy for me. May he rest in peace. The remaining fish are now staring at me and making me feel uneasy, as if somehow I have murdered Apostolicam. I'm concerned they are now in mourning. What was I meant to do!? Leave the poor fish, who you probably half-killed, floating around having something akin to an extreme asthmatic episode?!
