Just when you thought you’ve seen everything. Taylor Dean from Austin brought her pet goldfish into an aquarium shop where her friend Derek works and sought help for her pet fish that suffers from swim bladder disease. The swim bladder helps fish stay buoyant in water. Poor little guy couldn’t swim or stay up right and kept sinking to the bottom of the tank. So how did Derek help? He made a ‘wheelchair’ for the goldfish. Derek says:“I got some airline tubing that people usually use in their tank and just placed it around the goldfish. I added some valves to the bottom of it, which acted as a ‘chair’ to prop him up. I added weights to the bottom of the ‘chair’ and something to keep him afloat on top (styrofoam), and slowly removed pieces until I achieved just the right buoyancy to make it easy for him to swim around without feeling like he’s dragging around a chair.” After Taylor posted pictures on her twitter account @taylordean , the internets went mad with the love. Truly and Awwwww moment.
