Blackie

  This is a tribute to a fish I had years ago named Blackie. This guy had some spunk in him I have to

say. He was a wild guppy born with a spine curvature, the only one in the brood. I had him for over a

year before he died of unknown causes.

  Blackie never grew up, he was always slightly bigger than a newborn fry. His spine curved sideways

and that caused him to swim a lil lopsidedly. When he was born I thought he would have died but he

stayed very much alive. He was my favorite fish, because he was so determined and because he

seemed to recognize me. He would swim up to me and stay there, a little black spot in the huge tank.

I miss him. He reminds me that things in life may go wrong, but that doesn't mean that you should

give up. Instead you can try your best and inspire others to do the same. Love you blackie :)
