Thread: gold fish!!!!!!!!!!

we have two gold fish one has not looked too good for 3 days, todayit is just floating about with the other one pushing it about. dh says let it die on its own, it could be days ! i dont want to put it down the toilet. what can we do?

If it's ill you ought to take it out to try and prevent the other one getting ill. Quickest way we've ever found it take it outside and hit it with a brick. It won't feel a thing and it will be out of its suffering.

(I am going to move this by the way as it's not SPD related)

Remind me never to offend you Zoe

It's a bloody goldfish Zoe not a shark! Surely a reasonably sized pebble would suffice!

Now I have images of mild mannered Zoe going beserk in her garden whacking tiny goldfish with bricks!

you can't do that, it might get better

DH kept white mice as a boy, he buried one that died, only it hadn't...his mum saw it sticking its head out of her flower bed as she hung the washing out. Apparently, they could hear her screaming three streets away

I don't think there is much chance of that once Zoe's bashed it around the head a few times with her brick

I cannot believe that Zoe i am shocked

If you do hit it with a brick, make sure is definitely dead. With todays blame culture it could sue you for thousands otherwise
