Today, I found out my friends replaced the water in my bottle with vodka when all my fish died. Any water I don't finish the night before, I pour into my tank the next morning. Thousands of dollars and years hard work, gone. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found my brand new tropical fish dead in its tank because my boyfriend got drunk last night and decided to pour red wine into the aquarium. FML
Today, I woke up and checked my fish tank. I thought the temperature was too low, so half asleep, I turned it up. Now all my fish are dead. FML
Today, I found out that just because my roommate doesn't buy alcohol, it doesn't mean she isn't stealing mine and slowly replacing it with water. That bottle cost me $150 and was destined to be a present for my best friend, whom I haven't seen in years. FML
Today, two of my daughter's fish died after owning them for a year. Yesterday I spent $400 on a new bigger fish tank so that they would be happier. I built the stand, set it up, and got everything running. All I had to do was let it run for a week so that the pH would be fine for them, and then move them across. FML
Today, I noticed my 5-gallon glass vase/aquarium was leaking at the base. When I went to move the vase so I could transfer everything to a new aquarium, the bottom completely detached, sending water, sand, sea shells and fish crap everywhere. FML
Today, I bought a fish. I put the tank on top of the fridge so my cat wouldn't get at it. I'd forgotten to buy some things for its tank, so I quickly ran out to get them. When I got home, I saw the tank destroyed on the floor, and my cat devouring my fish. I had the fish for less than an hour. FML
Today, my parents were having a Christmas party. They went out to get the vodka in our garage fridge, only to find most of it was frozen. Knowing vodka doesn't freeze, they soon realized that I had been taking some and refilling it with water over the past two months. FML
Today, I heard on television that a body was found in my city's water reservoir. Word is that it was dead for over a week. I've been drinking and showering with that water. FML
Today, my friend is furious with me because while I was watching her various fish for two weeks, I failed to feed her favorite fish and it died. The reason I didn't take care of it was because she never told me she had it, that it was in her room unlike the rest of the fish, so I never saw it. FML
Today, I spent almost two hours cleaning my fish tank, only to find out that my cat had secretly eaten all of my fish while I was cleaning the tank. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Easily!! Depending on the kind of fish and the possibility of live plants and coral...it is not cheap at all!!

And thus Pixar was inspired to make a cautionary Finding Nemo sequel in which the protagonist develops alcoholism.

<p>OP's friends replaced the water in his water bottle with vodka, probably expecting that he'd wake up in the morning, take a swig, and possibly do a spittake or something when it wasn't water. I highly doubt they knew he was going to dump that water into his fish tank and kill all his fish. Some of you are acting like his friends maliciously dumped a whole bottle of vodka directly into the fish tank to try to get the fish drunk or something. Sheesh. It sucks and is real

This doesn't make sense to me

you can't just pour water into a fish tank! the water needs to climatised and shit

so if it was "water you didn't finish" Then that would mean that you did in fact drink from the bottle and knew it wasn't water. so isn't it your own fault ??

Well a bad joke from your friends but unless they know you add old water to your tank you can't hold that against them.

How did you not notice your water was vodka? It would have a destination smell and taste
