Making our pets at home -- Aquatics

[@almason6864]

ive been keeping fish for well over a decade and i mostly buy the unhealthy fish from PaH (and not one staff member has ever refused me sale) so that i can treat them at home and get them in a good tank. ive always had a soft spot for fish and i know the likely fate of the ill ones if i didnt take them :/

[@kieroncraig3594]

this is a good deed in a way, but by buying the fish you're supporting their business. and if their business is supported and they're selling fish well they will just keep doing what they're doing. meaning more fish will suffer in the long run. the best thing to do is boycott the store completely, and spread the word.

[@jasonpgarforth9748]

When I saw the guppies I immediately went 'aww'. I used to have guppies, most of them offspring from the guppies we bought at pet shops such as pets at home in Rotherham and the pet store at Wentworth garden centre. The guppies we bought lasted a while, and they had babies, and the babies lasted even longer. I feel like it depends on the pets at home you go to. The one in Rotherham is very good, as is the one in Fox Valley. The only issue I've had with the pets at home in Rotherham is the fact that once there was a dead fish on the floor. I felt sorry for the fish, I mean I was young at the time, but the staff quickly sorted it out, and I've never had any incidents like that since. For anyone buying guppies or thinking of buying them, they are extremely fragile fish, and they do need looking after properly. But, they are very active if they are healthy and they are really cute.

[@Villanelle3]

I just went to know how the water in all the tanks at my local Pets at home is always crystal clear! No matter how often I do partial water changes my 100litre tank never looks as clear as theirs! And it has lots of filtration with only a siemease fighter in there 🤷‍♀️

my local PaH has electric blue rams listed as "easy" to care for. when they certainly are not. the good thing is that they do have size charts for each type of fish they sell, so people know what to expect. they also ask you thorough questions before selling you the fish.

[@gollumtheartisticnewt1028]

Electric blue rams aren’t that picky. Just give them a nice planted tank with some sand and driftwood at 26 Celsius and they will be fine

[@Beth_White]

This is one of the worst places to buy fish, they never look after them like they say in this video. Best thing to do is find a local aquarium shop and support your local businesses. Chances are your local businesses have far more knowledge on the subject and can advise you better. Oh and their fish will be in better health giving you less chance of taking home an ill fish which you need to buy medication for. I've done this for the past 5 years and haven't had a problem by going to local businesses, but I've always had a problem when I go to pets at home.

[@awesomeaimee3173]

+Pets at Home Hi I've got a question.... if all this important stuff like stress medicine and knowledge of your fish is so important why do you not tell people when they are buying a fish. Now I know if you get a fish or any pet you would do your research but online not everything is correct, so you would expect the place you get your animal to give you the correct info. I'm sorry but all across Pets at Home shops your staff says the wrong things about your fish. Sometimes ppl are told to get food that is bad for that type of fish or even the wrong tank requirements. I would also like to say that I have seen in your tanks that fish are dead, dieing or even starving cause your not feeding them or not doing it properly. I would give you advise before highering an volunteer to make sure they know what their doing

[@yamunak3656]

Pets and birds

[@charlottewilliams4197]

When you work at Pets at Home you have to do training modules and be monitored until you’re fully competent doing fish sales. They’re required to ask certain questions and give certain information. The fish are always properly fed. An unhealthy fish can be caused by a plethora of things, and with the amount of fish in each tank of course there will be natural competition between tank mates. The checks they do are to help as best as they can. Please stop being so quick to judge. I understand it’s frustrating when you know a lot about a subject, and especially so if false information is being spread ( which is NEVER acceptable and would never be done on purpose), but the colleagues are only ever doing their best and trying to help. Bear in mind the conditions the fish are under are never able to be controlled by the worker anyway, it’ll be the big bosses who decide tank sizes and feeding schedules etc. Employees try their best to give the fish healthy lives. I hope this clears some things up

[@gracescott8281]

Dis pets at home looks way better than my pets at home, the tanks there don’t even have gravel in dem and if there is a ornament in the tank the paper tag isn’t even taken off

Our local Pets at Home is actually very gooddespite some of the comments down below. I guess it depends on the shop and the people that work there as some employees, especially those who helped me get set up with fish were very knowledgeable and advised me not to get some of the 'suggested' (expensive!) state of the art things but basic models that would work just as well. They cared for the animals a lot, well-fed and attentive or being treated before selling.

[@johnc2938]

When you buy fish at pets at home you are quizzed and looked down upon by "know all" employees lecturing you about obvious things while they are stood in front of tanks containing dead fish, although some fish are in smaller quarantine tanks. they are more interested in knowing which tank you have so they can potentially sell you another one than they are interested in telling you how to treat your inevitably young dying, sick fish. I have also bought guinea pigs with ring worm in the past and still had to pay Pets at home to treat it. Anyone else have these issues?

[@GenXchaos]

Ignorant question, why is it you tell us to have a large fish tank for certain fish and say we can only have a certain amount in that tank but at the store you have a tank half the required size and so much more fish in said tank?

I have spent a lot of time in our local branch as my daughter likes to have a good look at all the pets in store and I can tell you that the only time I have seen the staff go near the animals is when they have been asked a question by a customer. We were in there for at least 2 hours last time we went to the store and not one person checked on any animal. The staff were happy to help but only when asked, they spent the rest of the time talking behind the tills.

What a crock of shit! I went to pets at home and pointed out 3 dead and semi rotted fish in the tanks that had apparently already been checked 10 minutes before. The staff member was very rude!!! Their advise is also awful, almost year ago they tried to sell me a 24L tank for 2 Fancy Goldfish 🤣 their advise was buy the tank, fill it with tap water wait a couple of days and add 2 fancy goldfish - no tap safe, no cycling, no water testing needed with goldfish apparently 🙈 I thankfully had done my research...

[@charlottewilliams4197]

Hi, this shouldn’t have happened at all! Pets at home employees are trained to sell fish and have to go through certain points which are prompted on the system when selling fish. A pets at home employee should never sell a goldfish to someone with a tank smaller than 20 litres and it needs to have been set up for at least 3 days. This is rules they have to follow and colleague regularly refuse fish sales to customers who don’t meet those requirements. The colleague are prompted to ask about the use of tap safe before buying the fish too. As an ex-employee I apologise on behalf of pets at home for this poor communication of information. Additionally, although you may not witness fish checks I can assure you they are carried out frequently, with alarms set as reminders too. An ill fish may be left momentarily in certain cases such as to get a manager or someone with more fish knowledge to assess the situation if they employee is unsure how to deal with it themself. An ill fish is never intentionally left, and the fish are not neglected. I hope this hasn’t tainted your view of pets at home

They'll ask you every question under the sun except the most important. 'Do you know what the nitrogen cycle is?' Because they want low survival rates for fish or fish that dont live long so customers return for more.
