Fish question please help?

Question

My daughter knocked the fish tank off the counter and the fish and the water spilled onto the floor I put the fish back in the tank and there is still some water in the tank like just enough to cover the fishes body. What do I do I know you have to wait 24 hours to put water in the fish tank so it wont go into shock but I think it really needs water now!! Oh by the way it is a fancy tailed goldfish.

Answer 1

Put water in there now. It's fine, one time wont hurt. If you need to you can call the pet store.  

Answer 2

Hm, I could only suggest that you add a bit of water each day so that the temperature isn't too much of a shock for the goldfish to adjust to. But one thing for sure would be to move the tank to somewhere your daughter cannot knock it ;).

Answer 3

um even so you need to add water to the tank it will be fin as long as its fins are ok and the head is not hurt. but try to keep the fish tank/bowl in a safer place. it Will be fine
