It can be hard to watch a fish die. Repeated studies have shown that fish do feel pain. Anyone who has owned fish for a while soon learns they are animals with individual personalities, likes, dislikes, and some even show an affinity for contact with people.
If a fish is dying and you think there might be a chance it could live, try doing a water change and adding an airstone to provide the fish with extra oxygen. Be sure it is not suffering from disease by looking for signs of abnormalities such as white spots, fluffy patches, red streaks in fins or body, or parasites clinging to the fish, among others. If any of these signs is present, do research on the symptom and how to treat it.
If all else fails and you feel your fish is beyond hope, there is always euthanization. There are several ways this can be done, but many of these methods are cruel as it takes a long time for the fish to die. Freezing a fish is long thought to be a humane method, but when you freeze a fish, the cells burst and cause a slow, painful death.
By far the best method is to use Clove Oil. It is recommended to use about 25 drops per litre of water. Do not worry about overdosing, because this is what you want. Add it to a container of fresh water and place the fish inside. It may take awhile, but the fish will simply go numb and go to sleep.
The second most humane method is decapitation. If the fish is small and you can bring yourself to do it, lay the fish on a hard surface, and with a very sharp knife, make a quick, clean stroke through its head.
Hopefully, this will prove unnecessary in most cases, but when it happens, it is good to know what to do. Everyone has fish die at some point, but don't get discouraged! Fishkeeping is a fascinating hobby that can provide you a lifetime of enjoyment.
put the fish under clean water
GOLDFISH KNOWINGI don't think you can because when a goldfish is dying you can only clean your bowl or aquarium and the water and hope for luck.Fish have been known to recover once the poisonous water that is killing them is replaced. My advice is to do a water change as soon as possible. Then whether your fish dies or not, if you wish to be successful and give yourself a chance at keeping fish alive, you will supply the following necessities :- 1 inch of fish needs a minimum of 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank needs a fully cycled filter running permanently. :- Every tank must have 50% of its water replaced every week. Follow the above rules and your fish stand a chance of survival. Fail to follow them and I can guarantee that your fish will have constant health problems.
The first thing I would do for your fish is give it a few good water changes then I would follow what is written below. The basic rules for keeping fish are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. (a goldfish is a 10 inch fish so it needs at least 10 gallons of water):- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water changed every week. If you keep the above rules and keep your goldfish at or around 60F to 65F and feed it evey morning and evening as much as it can eat in 15 minutes (remembering to remove any left overs) it will stand a chance of living a resonable life. If you fail to provide any of the above I can guarantee that your fish will be constantly getting sick and will live a shortened and painfull, unhappy life.
This can depend on why the fish is ill. If it's a water quality issue, you need to change at least 50% to 75% of the water making sure that the new water is the same temperature as the old water, and that you use the recommended dosage of water conditioner per the instructions on the bottle.
Most often, fish become ill due to poor water quality rather than a direct illness, so regular weekly maintenance which includes changing at least 50% of the water as directed above makes a big difference.
To save a dying fighting fish, first check the water parameters (temperature, pH, ammonia levels) and perform a water change if needed. Ensure the tank has proper filtration and oxygenation. If the fish is showing signs of illness, consider treating with appropriate medication, and observe behavior closely for any further changes.
My best suggestion is to go to a fish store and supply them with the information about your sick goldfish. They might pinpoint the sickness and offer you some medication for your fish.
