DaminkaNeo: they can't close their eyes
SuperT0neD: YES THEY DO!!!
DaminkaNeo: when they are floating on the top of the water, that's not sleeping
DaminkaNeo: sorry to burst your bubble :'(
SuperT0neD: "Goldfish are diurnal and at night seem to go into a trance-like state. It's not called sleep, because they don't have eye-lids to close. But other than closing their eyes, it seems to be just like our sleep"
SuperT0neD: http://www.aquariumfish.net/catalog_pages/goldfish_and_koi/comet_pond_p2.htm
SuperT0neD: EAT IT YOU NOT FISH LOVING SCUM!
DaminkaNeo: trance != sleep
