[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Aj6627 So, if I understand this correctly, you pay $30 and get a kit to train your goldfish, which one day after training dies and gets flushed down the toilet... so you're out $30 AND a goldfish?[/quote]From the FAQ: [b]How long does it take to teach a fish tricks?[/b] On average it takes 2, 15 minute sessions a day. The tricks build upon each other and take about a week per trick for your fish to learn and complete. With steady training your fish should be able to complete all the tricks in the kit in a couple months. .... So you should get a goodly amount of time to enjoy your fish tricks before it passes away.
