but at least I was man enough to admit the dumb mistake... because I'm sure that there's somebody else that is an experienced fishkeeper that thought a ridiculous myth was true and is staying silent. haha, and laughing at me take the hits.
LOL, no, I don't care if you dislike goldfish because personally, I don't care for datnoids and they are far more popular around here.
Still though, I don't know how anyone who has owned even a goldfish could think they have three second memorys. My goldfish have some of the best personalitys of any fish I have ever owned.
I've seen that 3 sec goldfish memory all over the place: books, tv, schools. Goldfish definitely have waaaaaay longer memories than that. They do seem pretty mindless though.
