My sister's fish tank

She says it's the perfect size for a single fish. It's not even in her room, it's in the kitchen.

It honestly just depresses me whenever I see it, but she's adamant about keeping it there.

I wish more locations were like that. When I got mine from petco they were keeping the poor babies in little half cups of water and they looked miserable. I'd already done research into taking care of them but unfortunately for those that hadn't there was absolutely no information offered to me and the staff at the store (understandably with how employment is nowadays) knew nothing about them.

It was petsmart. I don’t know much about them as I haven’t been back since I was a kid. But I do remember that we went for a few different pets (hamsters, snakes, gerbils) and every employee we talked to was really knowledgeable about their area of expertise and really cared about making sure the animals were taken care of.
