How Did My Fish Fluffy Die?

Water quality killed him. The black marks were ammonia burns.

To keep fish healthy you need to keep water healthy. Its really waterkeeping, not fishkeeping. Those trashy feeder blocks combined with a lack of tank maintenance would have caused an ammonia spike which will be fatal if prolonged and action is not taken immediately.

So in effect, you killed your fish through not keeping his water quality immaculate and possible overfeeding. Blunt but true.

yeah, the dirty water makes them sick and then they die. I went on a trip for two weeks and my Oscar's tank was due for a cleaning the week before I left, but I didn't have the time. I asked the person I left Mr. Chompers with to clean the tank, they said they would, When I came back, my Oscar and Plecostamas (sp?) were dead, with little black marks on them. They never cleaned it and they died. it blows. I'll never leave my pets with that person again.

If you don't clean the tank when its visibly dirty your cruel. If its that dirty you should have cleaned it. And if he stopped eating you should have tried a different food. 8..( Poor Fluffy must have died in pain.

Maybe u should have cleaned dear Fluffy's tank more often.

Good tank maintance is key. If your tank was not clean and especially if it was visibly dirty then unfortunately you are at the very least somewhat responsible.

You musn't feed your fish next time each day.You must put 1 per 2 days and don-t put much.

u named ur fish fluffy lol

i threw my gerbil into battery acid, and he died too, perhaps you and I should peer into this conspiracy together

i believe he died of lonliness
