You wouldn't believe how many times I explain to people why Goldfish requires large tanks ! When it comes to children, I tell them this : "try to imagine that 1) you would have to live in your bathtub 24hr, 2) without changing the water, 3) growing up in it while being stuck, 4) all alone without a friend. Think about this and discuss it with your parents.absolute toture and animal abuse lmfao, its kinda sad how other pet owners look down on fish even though so many people treat them horribly due to a lack of knowledge
