Goodbye food

(viewed 591 times)

We bought this fish about two years ago, back then he was just about 1 1/2 inches long and 1/2 inch high...

our HUGE oscar decided he no longer wanted to eat live fish, so he and another goldfish grew and grew. He just died.
I noticed yesterday he was having some trouble staying upright. This happened once before, so I took him form the big tank and put him in this deep bin with food and stuff (that is why the water color turned strange color). It worked last time about 6 mths ago, but he just died.

He is about 8 inches nose to tip of tail and fairly thick.
I feel so bad, oscar liked to chase him and the other goldfish who has lived with him the whole time is now alone.

I wish I could capture his color better as he grew to be a very pretty fish and we were told we could have sold him for a lot since he was so large, but we never had the heart to let food go (we call them food since that is what they both were).....

yeah we had the food fish for a long time and each had their own personalities...they grew on us.
And since this one was sick once before like this and recovered, it was hard to watch it slowly slip away..
