Welcome to your new home

After all the old goldfishes said goodbye, the tank seems so empty and lonely. It is until today that the tank revived its liveliness as six new goldfishes own the tank now.

Welcome to your new home goldfishes!

Goodbye Cutie Little Goldfish, Fishie

Fishie was my favourite, it had been living in the tank for many many years and it was the oldest goldfish in the tank. Fishie looks really cute and it never fail to make me smile whenever I look at it. It always look so lively and it was not easy to capture a clear picture of it.

The day when friend of greedy goldfish passed away, Fishie was still swimming around and eating fine. However, the next day it's tail start to turn a little black but it was still eating and swimming as usual. I have no idea why it's tail become blackish. Hence, I put some salt into the water to treat it.

As the day passed, it's tail turn blacker and blacker. This week I am rather busy so, I did not have the time to monitor it.

On Tuesday night, it stop eating and when I reached home on Wednesday night, it loses control and it look really weak with very weak breathing. When I look at it late at night before I went to sleep, it's eyes move and look at me. It only have eyes movement but little/no breathing movement. I am not sure if Fishie was saying good-bye to me because it was the last time I saw it.

When I woke up, it's already gone. Fishie passed away on 25 April morning. Good-bye Fishie, I will miss you.

Fishie

Now, the tank is very empty. There are no more big goldfishes in the tank, only left with the small little goldfish that doesn't grow big aka Dwarfie. It is now the lonely little goldfish in the tank.

Good-bye Friend of Greedy Little Goldfish

The friend of greedy little goldfish was added to the tank with greedy little goldfish and another friend aka Dwarfie to accompany the lonely little goldfish aka Fishie. The family of four live happily in the tank for such a long long time till recently.

About few months ago, the friend of greedy little goldfish was sick. It seems like it lose control of itself. I can easily touch it but it doesn't seems to have any reaction when I touch it. Therefore, I tried to give it a salt treatment to see if I can save it's live.

Yes indeed, I had managed to save it and it started to swim around the tank the next day. After it's live was saved, I saw the wound on one side of it's body was still a little reddish. The reddish mark on it's body doesn't seems to disappear but it seems good as it was swimming around the tank quite all right.

However when the day greedy little goldfish passed away, it started to lose control of itself again. So, I quickly change 2 bucket of water and added salt to treat it.

However, this time, the salt treatment doesn't help. The next day, I saw it floating around with very little movement. I know that this time I might not be able to save it because it seems very weak with very little movement and very weak breathing.

Maybe it felt really sad that it's friend passed away or maybe it fell sick again, I don't know the reason. But I continue to treat it with salt hoping that it will recover.

However, in the early afternoon of the next day, 20 April 2013, which was two days after greedy little fish passed away, the friend of greedy little goldfish passed away too. I will remember you, friend of greedy little goldfish. I will remember that you survived once and live for quite awhile before you now left, Good-bye.

Friend of Greedy Little Goldfish

It was really sad to see both of them go, one after the next and now, the happy family of four was only left with two. I hope you two (Fishie and Dwarfie) will stay happily in the tank for a long time to come.

Good-bye Greedy Little Goldfish

The most greedy little goldfish used to eat very fast and a lot. Soon, it grew to become the biggest in the tank and it outgrow the biggest and oldest goldfish aka Fishie in the tank.

Sadly about a month ago, it suddenly stop eating. I have no idea why it suddenly stop eating. It was weird that greedy little fish don't eat. When I looked at it, it's stomach seems bloated and it always stayed at the bottom of the tank.

Initially, I thought maybe it was pregnant or something but later after about a week, I realised that it doesn't look right, it looked like it was ill. I saw that it's eyes began to look pop-out and it's body and face seems swollen. I began to think that it might be getting some kind of disease or illness. So, I quickly treated it with salt to see if it's illness could be healed.

Yes, I think that the salt treatment helped because few days after the salt treatment, it seems better. I saw that it began to swim a little even though it still stayed at the bottom of the tank most of the time.

However after about a week, when I thought that it was getting better, it's condition suddenly turn bad. It began to lose control of itself when it began to lay down but occasionally, it would swim and sit upright.

As the week passed, it's condition worsen as it began to lay down all day. About two days later, it looked like it was struggling to sit upright but it can't managed to. It looked weak as it was sick and have not been eating since then. Looking at it suffering and struggling everyday was such a pain.

Today morning and afternoon, I saw that greedy little goldfish still lay down the whole day. But in the evening, 18 April 2013, it passed away. I feel really sad but I think it's better to let it go sooner than suffering in it's illness.

Good-bye greedy little goldfish. You are such a strong little fish trying really hard to survive. I know you are strong and you like to eat. I will remember you forever, Good-bye.
