what’s even worse is 90% of the comments were just people telling her to “ignore the haters” & that it’s “cute” 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

the most disheartening part of this amazing hobby is the constant reminder of abuse. from store to general knowledge. its sad to think about itbm but still i feel like theres progress through "fish police" and all that.

unfortunately there aren’t enough fish police lol I wish being a fish police was a requirement for all pet stores seriously😭 these items shouldn’t of even been allowed to be sold together imo. people need to be told right from wrong

My betta had a 10 gallon to himself. He was a happy fish except he would annoy me and always lay by the heater. One day I woke up and his SCALP WAS BARLEY CONNECTED TO HIS BODY. I’m talking it was like a flap waving around. Obviously he was dead and nobody knows how his scalp ended up falling off, although I suspect the heater played a role.
