French pet care market leader AgroBiothers Laboratoire will no longer sell any aquariums with a capacity of fewer than 15 liters and only rectangular ones, as putting fish in small bowls without filtration and oxygenation is animal abuse, it said.
Turning round and round in a small bowl drives fish crazy and kills them quickly. Goldfish can live up to 30 years and grow to about 25 cm in big aquariums or outdoor ponds, but in tiny bowls, they often die within weeks or months. Goldfish are social animals who need the company of other fish, ample space, and clean water, and having an aquarium requires a minimum of equipment and expertise.
