that is really sad i had a pet goldfish but it was an albino or somthing that made it all white i had it for over 6 years then 1 day it just started lying down on top of the water but it wasnt dead! It just lay there i fed it some flakes but it still lay just opening and closing its mouth i tried for hours to make it get better add fish stuff i got a bit better so i went to bed but when i woke up the next morning its fins where EATEN and it was dead it was one of the saddest days of my life i always used to play with it i was so upset i coundnt go school!
