Max

Our pet, Max, is a gold fish.  He has been here for a year.  Soon after I got him from the pet shop, he got weak and he was always floating like lying down on the surface of water.  I thought that he was sick already when I got him at the pet shop and he won't live long. I went to the pet shop and explained the symptom to the shop assistant but I couldn't get good solution.  I realized that they are not really a expart. I decided to check on the web and look for the symptom for long time.  Then I finally found it.  It said that it is not actually a sick, it is just too much air in the stomach.  I was feeding a fish flakes that floats on water.  The problem was that when he eats, he swallowes a lots of air with it.  I went back to pet shop and found the food which sinks in the water. As soon as I changed his food, he got better. We are happy to have Max as a part of our family.
