The life of a tiny 16 year old goldfish was saved recently in an operation to remove a large mass from its stomach.

'Gianlucca' was anaesthetised and taken out of the water for the complex surgery which was performed by one of Ireland's only fish experts Marta Posim-Kosmowska and her team of nurses.

During the operation at Shenick Veterinary Centre in Balbriggan, Co. Dublin, the treasured goldfish was regularly flushed with a syringe of water and oxygen to keep him alive during the process.

The goldfish has made a full recovery after the removal of the mass on May 24th but it's not the first fish that veterinary surgeon Marta has operated on in her eight years at the surgery.
