I don’t like seeing empty fish tanks with fish or other animals inside. That’s so bad for them. Not even sand or rocks to cover the whole bottom. Why have the pet if you cannot maintain it, plus does not offer emotional support to a coping degree

Agree with everything except the last bit, although it doesn’t help emotionally like a pet you can cuddle it does help immensely with people who have executive dysfunction or depression because it ideally forces them to get out of bed to care for it. Having fish helped me a ton when I was struggling badly (dw I did in fact have the proper environment for them) bc it would get the momentum going

It was also low care enough to not be overwhelming, like having to take a dog out for a walk multiple times a day every day
