Ask Aqueon to stop making under one gallon betta fish aquariums. 

Sign the petition

Their five betta fish starter kits range from 0.25 - 0.75 gallon per fish, and they're advertised as suitable environments. They create low quality conditions with no room for adequate heating or filtration.

Betta fish need at least five gallons, a filter, heater, and lots of environmental enrichment like plants and hiding spots. 

Aqueon's tagline is "it's all about the fish" but they have been deleting comments and silencing the voices of concerned fish lovers. They will probably continue to sell these as long as they can make a profit from them.

Please help raise awareness about these harmful Aqueon tanks.

Today I did a water change and I put the siphon out the window to drain and tbh this is the most legal illegal thing I've ever done.

ok I know y’all probably have heard this before, but PetSmart is incredibly negligent for their care of aquatic pets. Especially Betta Fish.

This is how PetSmart wants you to see them:

A happy, healthy Betta Fish. Well, this is how they look in their stores:

Betta fish need a minimum 3 gallon tank, a heater, filter, plants and hiding places, and to be out of sight of other male bettas. These Bettas being sold are in literal plastic cups. They stay there until they are bought or die. They swim in their own waste, get fungal and bacterial infections, and even self-mutilate due to stress and boredom.

THIS is an ideal setup for a single Betta:

After feeling feisty today, I decided to interact with them to see how they’d respond:

They haven’t responded, which I totally expected. This is just a reminder that pet store corporations don’t give a shit about the animals in their care. Don’t buy Bettas from PetSmart, and if you have, do your research to provide them the proper care they need.

Rearranging my 6 gal corner Betta tank!

I didn't like the "black Galaxy Sand" substrate that i should've known better than to get at Petsmart. It was a pain to plant in and was staining the wood black. I used Seachem's Flourish black substrate instead.

Used some Anubias Nana, Cabomba Caroliniana, Amazon sword, red flame sword spotted????? Java Fern, Cardinal plant, along with an apogeton bulb and a red dwarf lily bulb.

Saber is enjoying the refreshed space :)
