You may consider all fish keeping to be cruel, but keeping a fish in an Dequate size tank is not cruel, hence the word adequate. Keeping a fish in and inadequate size tank(your case, where the fish won't even be able to turn around when fully grown) is a perfect example. If you continue to do this, no one will want to help you, an say you don't want advice, because your on a fish forum. Obviously, you don't care about your fish and treT them like dirt, so when your Koran dies you won't be too sad. A friend of mine put fish keeping this way: it's like us going to a hotel and getting free food. In your case, it's like a terrorist locking you into a bathrOom. That sounds fun. We choose to go to hotels, not get stuck in bathrooms. Ps. Your arguing with a 13 yr old.
