It's SPRING!!! BUNNIE RABBITS
I do not ever see this issue ever happening here at the US. One, we do have the health Board in each city and also various Humane groups that would shut this down really fast for cruelity.

I didn't know there were bylaws on animal cruelty concerning aquatics.
And Paxil, Luvox, and Zoloft. All are needed in this thread. Especially the Zoloft.

I know that here in MPLS the health board that goes to resturants will visit petstores and test water quality and also inspect the petshop as well. It causes problems for some owners but its a good thing.Timmain42 said:
That's fabulous! I had no idea they did that. I wonder if they do that here in Toronto, I've got a few places they should add to their list...tricksterpup said:
Next to my gym there's an office with a cube-shaped tank, maybe 45g (and I think I'm being generous there). It's completely bare of plants or decorations and has an air-driven UGF that barely functions. The tank has at least six fancies in it, all of them 4-6" long. It's not nearly as bad as keeping a shubunkin in a 0.5L bowl, but it makes me sad every time I see them swimming around apathetically in their brownish water.
I wish the producers of Sesame Street would read this and get Elmo's goldfish a bigger tank. You know that's not the same "Dorothy" in every shot. It makes me wonder if they just go out and get another fish every time they have to do a segment. I'm certain they don't have a huge tank hiding somewhere to house the poor things - if I'm wrong someone tell me. The worst thing is that kids grow up with that impression in their minds of a goldfish in a tiny bowl. As if it's the way things are meant to be. :rant:
This is why my son has a Dorothy in my tank. He doesn't need to know it's a golden lyretail molly.flyingfish said:
