So I thought pet stores had run out of ways to make me sick until today, when my little cousin who I've been trying to guide in the ways of fish-keeping (and failing) announced that she purchased three "sacrificial" fish to cycle her 2.5 gallon tank. I took a look and realized that they were danios, and after arguing with her and her mother for the longest time, her mother told me that "It is a 20 cents no-good ugly fish that's life has no value and is going to die anyways so who gives?" Finally I left the Facetime, telling them that I won't take part in sacrificing innocent lives for no good reason.
My little cousin kept blaming the pet store for telling her to buy them, but I told her that she shouldn't have bought a fish without researching it first. I'm just about done with trying to teach her the right way of fish-keeping, the sane, kind way, and am about to give up hope that pet stores will treat all living things fairly.
