Today, my 5 year old fish died. As I was flushing him, he started swimming again. FML

Today, I woke up to find my best friend lying down and unresponsive. Frightened, I tapped on the glass. He got scared and started swimming again. My best friend is a fish. FML

Today, I won a goldfish at the amusement park. My little brother took him out of the bowl because he thought he was drowning. FML

Today, I found my son's dead goldfish. Apparently, when it died he didn't flush it. Instead he placed it in one of my socks, placed that sock in a jar, and set the jar in the back of my closet. The fish has been dead for over a month. FML

Today, I woke up and checked my fish tank. I thought the temperature was too low, so half asleep, I turned it up. Now all my fish are dead. FML

Today, my dad decided to clean my 20 gallon fish tank. I had 6 fish. One of them was called a transparent fish, clear with a bright orange tail, which was my favorite. My dad didn't see it, and dumped the water out along with it. FML

Today, my favorite fish died. To make things better my parents thought to take me out to dinner. We ate sushi. FML

Today, as I was washing my boyfriend's fishbowl, the fish did a Nemo and made an unholy leap down the drain. My immediate impulse was to flip the switch. Our kitchen now smells like mutilated fish and my boyfriend won't speak to me. FML

Today, my 3-year-old daughter put her grow-in-water salamander in my fish tank. The residue from the toy gummed up the filter and killed all the fish. FML

could've been the toilet water movement making him look like he was still kicking.

That happened to me when I had to get rid of my sister's fish! He was floating at the top and everything, and was definitely dead (he was going white and smelled nasty), but every time I took him out of the water he flipped around as if he were alive. I put him in and took him out for about half an hour, trying to see if he was actually dead or not, but it turned out that it was his nerves reacting to the air. That's what my dad told me, anyway.

Yes, because you can check a pulse on a fish. FAIL.

Never heard of it, that fish's nerves still move even when the fish is dead? You can chop of it's head and the fish might swim a couple of rounds - same with hens by the way! Please don't try that at home! I am sure there are plenty of videos online!
