Today, I received a few new fish for my aquarium as presents for my birthday. It just so happened that these fish were carrying diseases that left me with a tank full of dead fish. Happy birthday. FML

Ydi for not quarantining them, like a normal fish keeper with a brain.

Well, you can't argue with that logic.

Well, as others mentioned: you totally deserve it for not quarantining.

You know, I said both FYL and YDI. It's sad, and it shouldn't have happened...but the others are right. Quarantining is a sort of essential process. Fish stores do it, as will any respectable hobbyist. Learn from this and do better with your next tank.

Your fish died, you need a friend

The new fish must have been purchased at Wal-Mart, my man bought some from there after I told him not to & guess what happened...

If you get new fish, you're supposed to keep them in an isolation tank for a week. You're also supposed to have a heater set to about 80°F. Both help prevent your problem

Partially YLS, because nobody likes dead fish. Partially YDI for not quarantining the new fish.
