Hey fish? NO problemo!! Remember the River of Life runs under that Bridge!!!! It must look like the River of Gold with all the goldfish under there!! (and my red betta Cassius too!)
Actually, goldfish are very popular, but I own tropical fish. Tiger Oscars, Texas Cichlids, and other things like that. I only have one left now. The second-to-last one died about a week ago, and we think he was cut, because the heater was broken. He had a huge bubble in his stomach, which my mom says must have happened after he got a really bad cut from the heater, and then the injury swelled up. We think he was a guy, because they layed a bunch of eggs a couple of months ago. So anyways, we assume that the one that died was the male, only because he was larger. The smaller one that is still alive could be a male, because female insects tend to be larger than the males, so why not fish? Nobody I know has any idea how to sex a fish.
The poor fish (that I think is a female) is all alone in that tank, feeling very lost.
This is a Tiger Oscar.
Sorry, the pic won't turn up for some reason, so I'll post this link instead.

This is a Texas Cichlid.
Thanks, calliecritturs for making me feel better about that.
