Are you treating the water? Goldfish need aquarium salt and a ammonia/clorine treatment.

You mean I can't just stick 'em in a bowl and run some tap water over 'em?

I do know better than that. I tread the water with the ammonia/clorine stuff. But I didn't know about aquarium salt or the grass stuff. My mistake with the first four was that I was adding water, but not changing it. My assumption was that if it looked clear, it was. But I don't understand the one from yesterday. Maybe he was sick anyway?

Looks like I'll be heading back to PetsMart for some salt and grass...

He might have been sick anyway, if the other three made it then it wasn't anything seriously wrong with your system. They will like the salt and the anakerous grass... (Still not spelled right I am sure!)
