Look what I've found on youtube comments:

Some people are made wrong

Gonna be devils advocate here.

Possibly netted the fish and put it in the jar for a photo, i want to doubt the fish lives in the jar. Some people cant take photos of fish or else its a blur... smaller space the fish stays still, seller can get a photo of the individual fish theyre trying to sell so a buyer can see fish's appearance, markings, and get a general idea that it isn't covered in ich or other obvious signs of disease.

I agree with @NCaquatics it would make more sense considering how well the fish looks. But there are a lot of stupid people out there with fish.

I like how you answered him.

@TheTenthDoctor, why were you looking at a Harrisburg Craigslist post? That’s 30 minutes away from where I live!

 

[PheonixKingZ]

You think that’s bad? Look at this Craigslist post...

Koi and more Koi - general for sale - by owner

I have several Koi available both butterfly and standard fin. Many different colors and patterns...

lexington.craigslist.org

They are selling Koi, but look at one of these pictures!

That one silver koi is literally upside down. They barely have any space to move around and I bet there is little to no oxygen in that little bucket.

This makes me sick to the stomach, anyone else feel this way?

Some people who should not have fish, I had several rescues that my daughters brought home from college because other students that had the fish were just going to flush them because they didn't want them anymore. They would post a note on the bulletin board

I would love to do that once I get more funds. Sort of do what @Deanasue is doing.

I would like to get more tanks, (lots of 5g, 10g, and 29g+) so I could rescue fish from uneducated people like you mentioned.

 

[Retired Viking]

I had several tanks back then so I could take the fish, 1-55g, 2-30g, 1-20g and 3-10g

That's awful! I hate reading comments on forums and YouTube with stupid people saying totally inaccurate information.

When my neon had a disease and I needed to euthanize it my friends suggested just flushing it while it was alive. Needless to say in the middle of McDonalds I ranted about the proper care of fish and euthanizing procedures etc etc.....
Now am known as the fish geek lol

Me to. For example, on an old forum I needed to euthanize my old betta, because he had dropsy (RIP, Zen, my first betta ever). They recommend I either 1( Flush it down the toilet, or, 2( Freeze it in a cup of water. Everyone knows you aren’t supposed to freeze them to euthanize them!
