fish and they have lasted 3 years now - pretty good for a fish!!!!!

Answer 4

When my family's angelfish died, we were all really sad. Especially me.
It was really nice. Sometimes I could even guess its emotions.
I watched it grow up for a long time.
I really miss it up to now, though it died last year.
It could be hand fed. It was the tyrant of the tank. It bullied all of the other fish.
But I still miss it a lot.
