[quote=Anonymous]As another poster noted, please get the fish a 10 gallon aquarium with full setup. This will be fun for your kids to watch, and the fish will grow and live for a while in that. You can even get a few more fish, and some snails and plants. If you put them in a bowl, they will die soon, as you can see from posts on this thread. I think it is so cruel to give away life fish like this to kids, who are going to stick them in a tiny bowl to die. Having the 10 gallon tank and allowing your kids to pick out gravel, ornaments, plants, snails, etc, and then to watch the fish, will be something they will enjoy and remember. You can even put it in one of the kids' bedrooms and put on the tank light (that will be in the hood of the 10 gallon tank) at night if one of the kids likes sleeping with a nightlight. I have such great memories of our fish tank when I was a kid.[/quote]
