I'm not surprised. We went through the same thing with my DD when we got a fair fish. We went through 18 fish before we got one that lived more than a few days. Then that darn fish lived for over a year, with DH and I doing all the feeding and cleaning. I was so happy when that fish finally died. It kept teasing us too. It'd go belly up, then when we went to get it out to "bury it", it'd start swimming away! That fish was like a cat, it had 9 lives. I hope your DD gets over her fish death and enjoys the new one.

We had a bunch of baby fish in the pond at the beginning of summer and now we have ZERO!! I think our now giant catfish got them!!So he's not really a giant, but is about 4 times the size he was when we got him in June!
