Cruel Furniture

[Jan]

A British firm has stooped to new depths today by continuing to feature their Wall Mounted Aquarium on their website. It may seem a minor thing, but we believe that there is too much cruelty on this planet, without adding to it.
Apparently they have increased the dimentions of the tank to measure 3 inches wide, and have advised that 1-2 fish max should be imprisoned in this tank. Their website adverts to date (12th Oct 06) still features their old dimensions. Even increasing the width to 3 inches will make little difference. Fish will have no room to behave naturally.
Check out our websites www.farplace.co.uk or www.dogwhale.co.uk for details.
Thanks so much.

This is about the stupidest and one of the cruelest things that I have heard about. Even new hatchling could not live in this kind of "tank". I do agree that it is not "furniture". For some reason I can not get their web page to load but I will try again later. I have always hated how the stores here display their Betas. They are kept in a box about that size till someone buys them.

firstly, the links to the furniture sellers webpage do not work, u have to ype it in urself(to betty) secondly can someone please explain the actual cruelty involved here, as a metric child i dont understand inches so three inches means nothing to me. personally i do feel that fish need more space then they are generally given to breed and live healthily but i dont actually understand this
