This fish is a colorful angelfish that Greg Heffley bought at the pet store in Plainview Mall in Dog Days and the online book.[1] Greg keeps track of all of its activity in a diary.
History
Dog Days
Susan Heffley took the boys to the mall mainly to get Greg a makeup gift from the disaster from his birthday despite Susan allowing Rodrick and Manny Heffley pick something out. They stopped at the pet store where Greg bought a colorful angelfish.
In the next few days Greg feeds his fish three times a day and cleans his bowel on a regular occasion. Greg even bought a journal to keep track of its activities but admits he's having trouble filling up the pages. Greg asks Susan and Frank Heffley if they could buy an aquarium and a ton of fish keep his fish company but Frank told him that aquariums costs a lot of money and he'll only be able to ask one for Christmas.[2]
Before the Heffleys left on a trip, Susan thought Rodrick's algae covered bowel that his aggressive piranha-fish is inhabiting, was disgusting so without using any common sense, she puts it in Greg's bowel. During their trip, Rodrick's piranha eats Greg's angelfish which led to Greg telling Frank that his fish had died.[3]
Online
In the online version, after Greg's birthday, Charlie Heffley took them to buy pets. Rodrick was attempting to buy a snake, while Greg and Manny fishes, but Susan told Rodrick it was dangerous and forbade him. So Rodrick took an aggressive fish while Greg got an Angelfish while Manny a goldfish. First Rodrick's Fish ate Manny's Goldfish. Then it ate Greg's Angelfish’s eyes and soon ate it.
Trivia
