I'm not even going to comment. I have a feeling I know where this thread is going to go, so I'm not even going to say a single word.

They have a bunch of different designs you can do, and not a single picture (that I can see) shows the frame with a fish in it. They only show pictures of the frames with things like candy, dried flowers, crayons, and pebbles. I guess they don't even use their own product as an aquarium?

I do agree though, if it gets used for aquarium purposes that is really bad.

How could you fit a goldfish in that picture frame? I mean no filter, no oxygen, and if you put it in there it wouldn't be able to move or turn around, its fat body would be to wide for it. And ADF a ADF how could you do that a a frog or even a betta? Oh this makes me so mad.

no wonder it doesn't say anywhere how big it is...

 

[Durbkat]

Its is probley no bigger than a quart or it could be even smaller.

Okay, so this has stirred you up and made you angry. Now do something about, take a proactive stand.

They provide a contact link. Contact them and tell them, in a well thought out and mature manner, just WHY it is inappropriate for them to suggest housing fish in such a container. Tell them that while using colored gravels and plants originally intended for aquariums DOES indeed make a fun craft (I'm loving the black and white themed one by the way), the only "fish" appropriate for putting in there would be something like these:
http/theglasshive.com/catalog1.html. Suggest they rethink what they are promoting and that they remove the suggestion that it is okay to house live fish in such a container. Back it up with facts about fish size and care requirements.

And with that said, now I'm closing this. We're not starting this trend all over again, we've already had one of these threads this month.
