    8 1/2 years old!!!! WOW! I own a tropical fish tank and have a gourami that's about 4 1/2 years old, 8 1/2 years seems like a lifetime. Sorry for your loss :(

    I know, when I told the cashier at Pet Smart they were amazed too. It's so long ago I don't remember where I bought those fishes but the store I bought them from said those gold fishes live about 4-5 years max. In that fifth year I prepared her but they kept going and going until one died last year then this year.

    Peace

    UPDATE...I bought my daughter a new larger tank with some exotic tropical decorations. Then we went back and bought 4 new fishes named...

    Jack (Black)......He's all black

    Little Larry.....He's spotted

    ?????.............He's all gold coloured

    and Casper....He's all white

    I get daily reports as to what they're up to, they're tiny now but I know they won't stay that way.

    The tank so pretty I told her leave her door open so when I passed I can take a look see. She's very happy now, Man what a lucky child. :)

    Peace

    Mikey is the name of her other fish, she just told me. :)

    awww
    when my sons budgie (gherkin) died we had to bury him in the front garden. I had dug a hole all ready, and Riley insisted on carrying gherkin out, but kept saying 'are you sure he's really dead?? what if he's just sleeping? i'll just check his heartbeat' ... feels on the budgies chest with his fingers, and listens for a little beat.
    it was so sweet
    then he couldn't bring himself to put dirt on him, so i had to cover him with a little bit of straw first.

    a new pet does help. We got a new budgie - pickle :)

    but i dread to think what will happen when the dog dies.
