It’s Only Getting Worse

Look at the tank I found today. On the side of the box it lists more than bettas that can live in it. Poor babies! I love the Do Not Overcrowd warning. Geeze!

Best stay off ebay and amazon then. You don't want to see what's being sold as suitable for goldfish.

I can’t stand seeing a goldfish in any bowl. Breaks my heart!

I think back to my first aquarium. It was a gallon jar with a lot of guppies in it. The ignorant bliss of youth. The constant drumbeat on this forum of bigger, bigger , bigger is great. I hope that people are paying attention. If you really must have one of these mini aquariums fill it with Kool-Aid and put a plastic frogman in it.

Nothing but contradictions, gotta love it (the contradiction that is, not the container). Hell, my water changing buckets have more water in them.

Oof. I looked at that and was like what the heck! The smallest tank I'd put any fish in is 2.5 gallons. And even then heavily planted with a filter and heater. And then only one small platy or endler

Really!? That is so sad!!

I can remember when I was a kid, seeing people put bettas in little cups, or those 1/2 gallon “tanks” (if you can even call them tanks). It breaks me heart.....
