Do you have trouble with people...

feeding your fish without you knowing?

When I had my fish in the kitchen I would always have to hide the food because my mom and friends would always overfeed her. I thought I was safe since I moved the tank to my room, but today I caught the housekeeper feeding them a ton. (at least 15 pellets) I was able to scoop them out and explain to her if she really wants to see them eat please give them 1 each...

But it just kinda gets on my nerves because people don't understand it can hurt the fish and the water quality.

Yeah my sister comes in my room and feeds them, takes some stuff, and then lies and denies it.
But she wont feed her own fish? i have to remind her all the time

That is screwed up! I thought it was common sense to not feed other people's pets without their consent. If they think the animal is being neglected or starved then they need to do their research first and then talk to the owner about it.

She said they were dancing around like they were hungry. I know she didn't mean any harm. I'm just glad I found out about it.

Ugh, same here. My Sis doesn't even feed her beautiful orange RT, but she feeds Dead Sunlight WAY TOO MUCH!!!

She's like: "bUT i DON'T like his colors!!!"

WHO DOESN'T LIKE AN ORANGE BETTA?!?

I told my mom, and I got to "rescue" him. Ha, no more fish for u sis..

I renamed him Fallen Leaves:)

I actually hadn't thought of that...

[JKfish]

yep, I've got that problem too. That's why the cabinate with all the fish supplies that the tank is sitting on has a lock, and I've got the key. The lock is so easy to unlock even without the key, that it's more of a visual reminder to my family then an actual obstical.

Oof, windex... I caught my little sister doing that to my tank and almost had a heart attack.

Agh My mom does the same thing! If I sleep over 7 AM she always feeds them and then doesn't tell me so I feed them again! Or one time I had my friend over and she gave Alex GOLDFISH flakes!!! I have all my pets in my room now lol besides the horses of course!
