Silver hatchet fish gets the ax

Achilles, who only yesterday was given his name, died today. Tank officials were unable to determine the cause of death.

"We have had very bad luck with hatchet fish in the past," said TankKeeper. "We lost one a few months ago, and now we've lost one half of the new pair of hatchet fish."

Hercules, the surviving hatchet fish, appears to be doing fine. The hatchet fish are owned by Kelly Schmiedt.

Achilles was buried this afternoon. Flush Brothers Inc. handled the arrangements.
