This is an old picture of him.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Pets are family members and their passing is just as traumatic. How old is he?

I can't remember the exact date, but I bought him from a pet store earlier this year. He was very little and I like to feed him a lot. Thus, his fat figure. :)

A friend of mine one time said that I purposely fatten him up with the intention of cooking him up when he was big enough to be eaten..:D

My fish died yesterday. When I got home from work, I saw his home but he was not there. My mother said he died earlier yesterday in the afternoon..:(

Aw, sorry about that. It hurts to lose a pet.

Regarding the ibuprofen, I gave my dog Nicky one a long time ago (he was old and arthritic) and he vomited a bloody discharge and the vet said to never give animals ibuprofen. Just plain aspirin is ok though, like the 81mg dose. Nicky was a good dog, he was 17 when he died.

My deepest sympathies Sub. I have lost several pets in my life, four of them goldfish, and know it can be like losing a good friend. Best wishes in your recovery.

Thanks for the kind wishes, peeps. :)

Well, how much can you trust your mother? . . . I mean, you didn't actually see the body, right? Do you know how tempting a nice, big, fat goldfish can be?

Well, be careful about it. I mean, it starts with a goldfish, who knows what she's capable of? :D

So, you're saying that I should stick with fish....

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeah, don't upgrade to a cat, or a dog . . . :D That would be a true tragedy. ;)

No wonder she never allowed me to have something more than a fish....

Now, the secret have been revealed...
