Deceased...

[Bunnicula05]

Bubbles died today. After I got Barry, my new fish, I started to feed them twice a day because I didn't think Barry was getting enough to eat since he never comes to the top to eat. And I think that's what did it, Bubbles was used to eating once a day. He lived to 4 years old age. The longest living goldfish I've ever had, and my only goldfish I ever had.

Sorry to hear about your loss, but I am sure he lived a long, happy life.

I'm sorry for your loss! Bubbles was the longest living goldfish I ever heard of too.

Sorry to hear about Bubbles

sorry about Bubbles !!!

Our goldfishes never got older than one year ....
BUT !!! This counts only for goldfish living (swimming) in a small aquarium .We have a large pond in our garden ; last year my daughter got a goldfish as a present , and instead of putting it into a glass bowl , she put it in the pond !
You should see that tiny fish now !! He (or she) has doubled in size and is as healthy as ..... yes , a fish !!!!!!! He found some fellow-goldfish there and has the time of his fishy life !!!!

I'm so envious, Lut! I want a fish pond so badly!! One day, I will do it, in the "front yard". I can just see my dogs going wading and fishing if it were in the back yard!!!

LOL, mine lived in just a small one gallon aquarium.

My mom has three small ponds in her yard that she keeps fish in. she buys the little feeder goldfish and OMG they get HUGE!!! it is so cool to see them grow up to be these awesome fish!!!

So sorry to hear that

Bubbles did live for a long time, but I've had goldfish who lived longer than that actually. We have a two big ponds in our garden where we had 70+ fishes, but when we cleaned them out this spring there were only 2 fishes left(!)... And the strange thing was that there was no dead bobies to be found, the fishes had just dissapeared. Among the vanished fishes were Gulliver, a huge goldfish that was like 6-7 years old

This is how one of the pond looks incase anyone cares, and sorry for bringing this offtopic >_<

That's pretty long for a fish to live, I had no idea that they could live that long! And the pond, it's absolutely beautiful! I would love to have one like that! Thanks for the pic!
