I dropped my goldfish when I was cleaning his fish bowl.?

Don’t worry, he probably forgot about it.

its just like if someone dunks you in water when you don’t expect it, it’s not fun, but if he’s alive now he’ll be fine unless the fall hurt him, which would probably heal anyways.

Yep will be fine

u willl find out in a few days

There only 25 cents at the goat barn. Go get a new one.

he will be ok but you should never NEVER tuch fish eyes and wash your hand before tuching fish m tah??ok

dont think you ll have the choice … just wait it out and treat em like you didnt drop em

he will be fine.

fish dont feel pain anyway.

“The world’s foremost expert on the subject is Dr. James D. Rose of the University of Wyoming. He’s spent 30 years working on questions of neurology, examining data on the responses of animals to painful stimuli. In 2003 Rose published a landmark study in the journal Reviews of Fisheries Science, concluding that animals need specific regions of the cerebral cortex in order to feel pain. And fish do not have them.”

he is going to die most likely.
I dropped my goldfish and he died within 2 days afterward
even if he seems fine its all a lie

oh my god get him out of the water and perform mouth to mouth i cannot believe you havent dont that yet. he will not live in water you idiot. it might help to leave him out in the sun he needs air.

I am in a school for aquaculture and i think it should be fine. I don’t see why anything would happen to it. As long as you got him up quickly everything should be ok. Good luck and please let me know what happens. this would be good to know about. thanks and again good luck. katie

It depends on how hard he fell and also how dirty his floor was. I’ve done this a couple of times but I always add stress coat to replenish my fishes slime coating. He really does have a 50/50 chance of survival.

He might be fine from the fall, but he’s not fine from being kept in a bowl.

Common, comet, and shubunkin goldfish need 75 gallons of water per fish, as they can get to be 14 + inches long.

Fancy goldfish need 30 gallons of water per fish, as they can get to be 8 + inches long.

They need filtration:

Goldfish can live as long as 25 years, IF they’re kept in suitable tanks, with suitable filtration. Hundreds, if not thousands, or more, goldfish die every year from being kept in bowls. Goldfish that are kept in bowls usually live no longer than 10 years.

Please, for the sake of your goldfishes life get him a tank and a filter, and do some research on goldfish care.

hahahaa. sorry but i just remembered i did this with my betta and he fell into the garbage disposal. he was fine! and im sure yours will be fine too.
