Guys. Remind me to NEVER go into the pet store on a weekend ever again. It's all people wanting to buy fish for tanks way too small for them and who definitely don't know what the nitrogen cycle is. It's children running around screaming while their parents smile and nod. It's mothers turning down their daughters' idea to have a species tank of neon tetras in favor of mixing a couple of neons with a couple of glofish white skirts. It's employees letting eight year olds catch their own fish because isn't that so nice of them? It's people who think that the previous type of fish they got died because they're just bad with that type and not because they need to LEARN how to actually take care of fish in general AND the specifics of whatever species. It's fish hell and I'm trapped here too. The screams they'd cry out are lodged in my throat instead.
