There was no doubt in my mind that they were just not taking the time to clean the stuff up, and really didnt seem to care about anything except for the money. The lady was following us really close and said she took all the tops off the tank and everything that would give them some security (plants, rocks, etc...) so everyone could see them better. They also had 2 HUGE oscars in about a 20 gallon tank, they were side by side and couldnt even move.

The guy from peta emailed me back, heres his email



Dear Aric,


The SPCA of TN asked us to assist you. Do you think you would be able to get photos of the conditions inside the pet shop? I called the Sheriff’s Department, but there is no Animal Control for Blount County. The photos would help us confront the owners of the store. Please let me know. Also, your anonymity is guaranteed.

Thank you.

Sincerely,





Peter Wood, Cruelty Caseworker


Ive emailed the TWRA law enforcement about this and ill wait and see what they say before I return this guys email. There is NO WAY ON EARTH that I will step foot in the place again.
