I feel really sad for the beautiful flowerhorns he has, but i think these living conditions are appalling..... what do you guys think?
 
Is he some kind of retailer for them? If not, what a tool!
 
Nope from his youtube info it says this is his so called "fish room" to me it's more like "fish prison.........
 
He needs to stick with betas with his mentality.
 
Looks like a mad scientist setup or something. Sad stuff, use this to fuel your continued good fish keeping habits.
 
I'd assume those fish are in there short term and he sells them. However, I do agree that the spaces are still way small.

Lol exactly what i was thinking
 
Oh no, not another "my tiny glass box is bigger than your tiny glass box, so you suck" thread. Personally I'd give em more room, but the fish are healthy looking and not deformed...so defining what is too small a space is up to the individual.

Those fish are IMHO more "happy" than a number of large active fish we keep regularly, like ID sharks, TSNs, etc, in small tanks.

EDIT: Funny how putting bettas in the same set-up seems to be appropriate...
