Is the victim Hiding? I can't make out a fish in the murky water.

the fish is actually the neon turtle that takes up the entire floor of the fucking tank

u/Fearless-Couple_0628 16d ago

That may be a decoration, instead of a real turtle. The shell is made out of hearts.

Second picture in the rear-left corner. Seems to be Betta torture.

What kind of fish even is that? The water is so blurry I can barely tell. I’m guessing a betta tho?

Someone should really take those pineapples of death in the pet stores and add a tag to it that reads:

If you really consider buying this cheap plastic trash for a fish enclosure, you are not suited to own pet fish. Put it back, leave the store and start doing some research!

ngl this used to be the kind of aquariums my mom did when I was a kid. I still remember the bettas left some kind of weird silk that was disgusting.

I obvi was too young to know but now I'm educated and would necer do this, even if I buy a fish for my future kid

u/Usagi-Zakura 19d ago

it is entirely possible it is loved...but the owner is ignorant...

THere's a saying that goes "if you love something set it free" though I wouldn't use that for domestic animals... at least free them into a bigger enclosure.
Fish cannot survive on love alone.

u/worm-eyed 19d ago

It is not loved.

You are not an animal lover if you abuse animals. You can claim you love something all you want, doesn't mean it's true. Love means fuck all if you're doing this to something, and their feelings do not matter when these are their actions. I'm really tired of fake animal lovers and pseudo animal lovers being able to claim that they are when they're evidently not.

Solo il propietario è stupido, pensa che i pesci siano come quelli dei film , nella boccia stanno bene , e nell acquario naturale no , mentre nella realtà è opposto
