Years ago we bought a starter fish tank for our daughter, it had about eight (Cherry Barbs?) in it. The first time she cleaned the tank, she unknowingly used a sponge containing bleach. The fish were dead in an hour after returning to their tank.
Last month she tried her luck with a little aquatic frog, and one fish. Within a couple of days a whitish film (Ick?) formed on the fish, which died shortly after. The frog lasted a couple more days, and was flushed shortly after.
It wasn't long after that my daughter visited the zoo with a friend, and raved about the Stingray exhibit.
Just sayin'....
