As always, never is a strong word and things can definitely change (I said I'd never get lizards because I'm terrified of crickets, I'm still terrified of crickets but I most definitely have lizards). However, as of right now, these fish have been on my "do not buy" list either forever or at least for years!

For the fish I gave more moral reasons for, it's entirely personal and if you choose to get them, that's ok too! They're still going to be sold, the most important thing is always caring for the fish properly! I'm just hoping to also spread awareness of some common fish practices we might not know about.

…did you know that when I had a glofish zebra danio, as mentioned in the video that I love them, that their skeletons are also bright yellow...Weird, definitely something to think about, but I'd still buy them if I could have larger tanks.

Are there any fish you would never buy?

FAQS:

Q: How many fish tanks do I have?
A: One! But I often film my mom's tanks as well, so you will see more than the two on my channel!

Q: Will I ever get a betta sorority/breed bettas?
A: Nope and nope! Both require a lot of work, money, and time to perfect- neither of which I'm willing or able to provide!

Q: How do you name your fish?
A: Sometimes I'm inspired by a character in a show or movie, or someone in real life like a celebrity. More often than not, however, I literally just choose whatever pops into my head- its like names I love but would never name my future children for whatever reason haha
