I Found A Goldfish

[luckies4me]

OMG, how sad! Did they just leave him out as trash? How sad! Poor little fishy. Goldfish are starter fish and fairly easy to keep if you only have one. You'll also need some water conditioner as well as a filter if you plan on keeping him. Sponge filters are pretty cheap. Goldfish create a lot of amonia and are pretty dirty fish.

I'd take it if you lived closer. Like the others said, it wouldn't take much to house it, (a smaller goldfish) until you could find it a home if you don't want to keep it.

I wish you did live closer, I would let you have it. He/she is a lively little
bugger. I read that Goldfish don't usually live a long life, so I was prepared
to find him gone in the morning, but not this one.

I put him in a rectangular glass vase I had & gave him some fish food &
boy was he glad to get out of that small water bottle. I haven't checked
with all my neighbors yet, but I'm still trying.

Good to hear he's doing well! Know anyone at the local elementary school that might take it to be a class pet? Poor fishy, I am glad you saved it!

I have two Goldfish who are nearly 5 and two close to a year old. They don't usually live long only because people don't care for them properly. I'm glad you saved him and hope you find him a home.

You should keep him. Fish are awesome and have the cutest little personalities.

Well, the little guy didn't make it.

I fed him as usual yesterday morning & watched him as he ate. Seemed fine
and active as usual. When I checked him again later in the late afternoon,
he was laying on his side in the water.

Sorry little one, I tried my best. R.I.P. little Goldfish.

Aww. Poor fishy. Who knows how long he sat in that water bottle. Well, you did what you could.
