This week’s featured pet care video has to do with pet goldfish. From how to purchase a goldfish to dealing with a goldfish’s “untimely demise” (insert toilet bowl joke here), we felt that this video -- “Caring for Goldfish: A Video User Guide” -- gave the most well-rounded look at the basics of pet goldfish care. The video (originally intended as a tech school exercise) also has some comic relief (it’s actually quite silly in places) which takes it from a simple informational video to something that you will actually enjoy watching.
While the videos featured after “Caring for Goldfish: A Video User Guide,” don’t match its dry humor, they also have some great information to offer. Check them out to see if caring for a goldfish is really as simple as you think.
