I have watched my fish die before. My favorite fish was dying because the other fish were picking on it. It got weaker everyday and it's fins were damaged from other fish nipping at. I wished I could do something so bad. My fish looked miserable. I felt so sorry for it. I watched her day to day. I wanted to put her in a different tank but did not have an extra one. All I could do was hope she would be strong enough to survive. I saw here die in front of my eyes. It broke my heart to see my favorite fish die like that. I recently bough another fish like her and she is doing ok. Noone has picked on her yet. I am hoping it stays that way.

I've seen kittens,a skunk,a baby deer,little mice die. I live on a farm and I see lots of sad things. If I know something is going to die I try not to be around.

It's very sad to watch something you love die. I have seen my fish die. And I had to put animals to sleep. One was put to sleep in my arms. It was very difficult.
All fish seem to peck on fish with fins. So you might want to separate them. Good luck.

I'm sorry for your loss. Poor little fishy :(
I had to watch one of my cats be put to sleep! It was the saddest thing for me. That cat was one of my best friends. But we all have to be strong, it's the circle of life.
