A relative of mine wanted to get this because she thought it would be nice for her children to "learn about responsibility" by taking care of fish and watching them grow or something like that. I was like . I mean, you could get a 55 plus gallon tank for that much money and you will be able to watch the fish grow...

Exactly, they aren't that young... About 7 or 8 years old. A single beta or maybe a couple of guppies isn't going to interest them for long.

no way! what can you possible put in that thing! I'm selling a 65 gallon with everything that tank has except for a filter and I have t5 lighting for only $100!

Its insane, but I think its for people with minimal interest who want to do minimal research..

Maybe some of these kids will like their tanks so much they will upgrade and become insane MFK'ers like the rest of us.

I doubt it. These kids aren't the ones you'll let your dog be alone with for five minutes nonetheless a fish in a fishtank.

What a rip off.

Yeah these are stupid. All those little kits with small tanks etc are selling for big money, I dont understand it. I'd rather buy something bigger and better.
