A more humane size tank for Dorothy


A more humane size tank for Dorothy
The Issue
Join me in asking Elmo‘s world to change their fishbowl to a more humane bigger fish tank for the goldfish. Goldfish require 20 gallons minimum and a fishbowl is very inhumane because they are usually 1 to 2 gallons and I would like Elmo‘s world to set a good example for the next generation and be more humane for all species of all sizes, including gold fish.
I am asking Elmo’s World to update to a more appropriate tank for Dorthy. Join me by signing this petition today.
Dear Elmo’s World please change Elmo‘s goldfish bowl to a bigger tank because goldfish need a minimum of 20 gallons please set a good example for the youth.
Sincerely,
Sebastian
In aquariums, adult common goldfish, comets and shubunkins should have at least 20 gallons of water per fish, while adult fancy goldfish should have at least 10 gallons per adult fish.

A juvenile fish growing up in a too-small tank can be expected to experience stunted growth, spinal deformities, atrophied muscles and other developmental heath problems. As a result, a stunted fish's life span is significantly shortened, too.
