The small square fish containers are called aqua-babies here. There no more
then 6" sq. and often contain fish that will get several inches long. They
tell you the fish wont grow and all you have to feed them in once a month buy
dipping a tooth pick in the food package they give you. Several members of
Greater Detroit Aquarium club have started asking for the manage and
informing them of the cruelty that's going on. Most stores are surpassed they
believe what the producers of these things tell them. Its not a bad idea to
do this is the way the keeping of fish gets a bad name and we don't want the
general public to get down on fish keeping.
