Fish is really happy and eating one day, dead the next
A few days ago one of my two goldfish died. It had been acting weirdly for a while, so I saw it coming. A few minutes ago I came home to find my other fish dead in the tank. It seemed fine this morning and it ate the food I gave him. Did it die because of loneliness, or something else?

Hi Ilona,
how big is your fish tank? Do you have a filter system in your aquarium? How much and how often did you feed your fish?
Most goldfish die in undersized, unfiltered fish tanks to ammonia poisioning. Sometimes they die to overfeeding.

They will never die to loneliness. They do not even get lonely since they are not school fish.
