A woman spent $500 on surgery for her pet goldfish.

  • The Goldfish’s name is Conquer
  • When his owner noticed him acting strange, she took him to the Brisbane Bird and Exotics Veterinary Services Center
  • After an examination, the vets noticed he’d swallowed a pebble from his tank
  • Conquer was anesthetized, and the pebble was removed
  • Goldfish surgery is uncommon, but not unheard of
  • Conquer was returned to his owner and is back in his tank, happy and healthy
