Ban the sale of “Teddy Tanks”, and other similar products in America.

Created by M.R. on December 14, 2014

“Teddy Tanks” have numerous design flaws that will ultimately result in the death of a fish.

The fish tank's top is covered by a stuffed animal. This will prevent oxygen from flowing into the water of the tank, and will cause the Fish to die.

The tank is shaped like a stuffed animal. This will prompt children that they can carry it around like a normal stuffed animal. The shaking motion of a human walking can cause stress on the fish. The shaking motion can also cause the fish to die.

Children sometimes drop stuffed animals. If a child drops the stuffed animal, the tank could shatter. This would cause the tank and it's contents to fall out. The fish could die from not being in the water.

These are some of the few reasons that “Teddy Tanks” should be banned.
