im so upset! my goldfish (the one that will bought me for our 1 year) is almost dead. see i usually change the water with bottled water. the fish likes it. however on saturday i checked to see if we still had some water left so i would be able to change it today but there wasn't any so i asked my parents if they could pick up a case by today but of course they didn't. so my mom just said that brita water would work just as well. well, she was sooooooooooooooo wrong. my fish is practically dead. theres no point anymore. i feel like just flushing it. it's so sad to watch it. he floats to the top whenever it stops swimming and then starts to turn upside down, but then gets a burst of strength to swim around a little more but then does the same thing over again. i even tryed to feed it but it wouldn't eat anything and this fish will eat all the time no matter what. im going to cry. i know it's 'only a goldfish' but it's really pretty with its big fins and is kind of special because will bought it for me for our one year. oh well. i hope my mom feels really bad about it.
