Fish Abuse by Walmart

The Goldfish Sanctuary is currently running a campaign against Walmart stores for their atrocious treatment of all kinds of fishes. Please do not buy fish or supplies from them - in fact, we strongly suggest that you boycott the store altogether. What follows is more information on this campaign.

ATROCITY against FISHES: Walmart Stores
GFS members from across the US have told horror stories about the terrible treatment fish receive at Walmart. Fish are forced to live in filthy water, dead fish and diseased fish abound in the tanks, and fish are overcrowded. Often, fish are kept with other incompatible species, and goldfish are indiscriminantly mixed with tropicals. My local Rochester, New York Walmart's pet department is dark, ill-lit, and not supervised. To obtain help, one must seek an employee out. Seeing the fish literally die before my eyes, suffering in these terrible conditions, is revolting. No animal should ever be treated this way, allowed to suffer endlessly until its inevitable death.
According to Mr. Greg Bickal, Chapter Head of the Iowa Goldfish Sanctuary:
"I would like to complain about Walmart. Dirty fish tanks with diseased fish. I recently bought 2 red-capped orandas and a calico fantail from them. Or should I call it RESCUED. If I would have left them there, they surely would have died within a week."
D. Catham, head of our Texas chapter has this to say:
"Another very bad fish abuser and seller, at least in this area, is Walmart. In this area, Walmart is far worse [than Petsmart], if that is possible. I frequent the fish department every time I go to that store, find absolute carnage, and then I find someone in the department, and COMPLAIN LOUD AND LONG! Walmart SHOULD NOT BE IN THE LIVE FISH BUSINESS. If their conscience is not bothered by the gross cruelty of keeping fish long enough to kill them there or send them home with a poor, unaware customer to die and/or spread disease to that customer's home tanks(not one tank is disease free)..."
Walmart, the nationwide discount department store, is known to mistreat their fish, an active party to their suffering. Walmart should simply NOT BE SELLING LIVE FISH.

Help the goldfishes now!

I have start a thing called STG(Save The Goldfish) it like Hermione's house elf thing, the poor things, she's right they should have rights too! So if you can save as many goldfish as you can afford, they cost $0.28 plus tax so it's $0.30 total each. They will die and not have had a real life to live. If you don't help them, you will be haunted by the Spirit of the Goldfish tonight at 12 O clock and it will show you the horrible way that goldfish are treated in the evil labs of the Wal-Mart corporation. Save them or else...
