i was pet-sitting a goldfish once that was in a small filtered tank. The owners left the filter off. The owners let the algae grow. They fed the fish "when they remembered to". they really just had me there to watch their dog.
I put their goldfish in a clean tupperware and scrubbed out its tank. with no chemicals. i treated its water with the proper stuff that i use on my reliable tank at home. i put the goldie in the shiney little mini-tank and turned on the filter. I then went to bed.

in the morning, it was dead.

i guess it liked the filth?
