A goldfish in a pond at the Royal Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh underwent cosmetic surgery after visitors complained that it was too ugly. An unsightly lump on the fish's head was removed, along with and eye. It's now back in the swim - very likely fishing for compliments. "it's the neck, it creaks under the weight of too much heavy thinking."
