Do not buy anything from petsmart, EVER.


They treat all the animals like shit. I was HUGE into the reptile/amphibian hobby (still am to an extent, I have a mating pair of tokay geckos and 8 poison dart frogs) and the NUMBER 1 rule was to NEVER buy a live animal from a pet store. If you want a healthy pet, GO TO A BREEDER. Even if it is a goldfish. The last time I bought fish from petco, I took perfect care of them and out of the 20 or so I originally got for a 100g aquarium, only 2 lived past a year old. For comparison, I replaced most of those fish with ones from a hobbiest in Denver that had a dope ass reef shop off of the interstate and they have been living happily for over 5 years.

ehh, judging by there mouths I wouldn't consider them predators. Most fish want nothing to do with humans, I would say that the only fish I'd actually be wary of would be a goliath grouper. They've been known to be nasty, steal spear fishers catch, but no one's died from them except a 15 year old boy who was WAY too deep at 200 feet and spearfishing while diving, it was a total accident, he speared the grouper something got wrapped around him and he got dragged down and drowned. Otherwise, they usually leave you alone. I've dived with them before and they left me alone completely. There has been several sightings of a great white lurking around wrecks in the florida keys - ones that I've dived before and am going to dive again in about a month, and I'd probably shit my wetsuit if I came across one without a cage, but people do have unplanned encounters and most don't get bothered. The grouper on those wrecks are around 500lbs, but they don't worry me at all, not compared to the 20 foot white shark that's been hanging around.


here's a goliath grouper eating a 4 foot shark whole.







I've heard goldfish are trash fish, so I'm guess they'll eat pretty much anything they can fit in their mouth, but one even that big is not a threat.

yeah but what if one was formerly a petsmart fish or just had a rough life living in a little bowl at its owner's house where the housecat tormented it for days on end and then eventually got let go and now wants revenge against all humanity

Tap water can kill fish. You need to dechlorinate it before hand. Other than that, it is completely safe to fill it up with fresh water as long as you aren't replacing more than 50% of the water.

Oh, yeah. Not ideal, and wouldn't do it under normal circumstances.

Not like I was going around replacing good water with tap water though, the water was either murky or dangerously low when I've done it.

They were certainly dying before I stepped foot in the store, lowbrow's just trollin.

Yeah I don't blame you. They put poor betta fish in those tiny 8 ounce deli cups, wtf


Two species of fish that need large tanks are the 2 most popular "fish bowl" pets, goldfish and bettas. Hell, golfish need at least 1000 gallons to live healthily.


I have a lot of experience with these hobbies and so many people just do it all wrong, and the first mistake most make is buying from a pet store. You gotta remember, do you really think a chain STORE is gonna care about anything but money?


Pets, even fish, cost money. If you can't afford more than a 30 cent golfish and a 5 dollar bowl then maybe the money would best be spent on a burger and soft drink. The chain pet stores specifically target those types of people. They know your fish is gonna die in a week, which is why they're so cheap.



The most simple aquarium you can get that will safely house a fish for the least amount of money is still like 30$.

Everyone knows this is copypasta from craigslist, right?

OP is still too worked up about the ugly ass fish.


--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way.
I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

There's no reason to assume OP isn't the same person who made the CL posting.

Why would someone in the Netherlands make a post on Cincinnati's Craigslist?

It went viral on reddit today, I kind of thought about that when I read the op but figured I'd take the opportunity to rant anyway, because the dude makes a good point regardless if he's op or not.
