TV Misinforming Kids

I am sitting here watching TV with the kids when this kid show on TV when this show starts misinforming kids about fish tanks aquariums.

A statement was made that too much food will kill gold fish. I don’t see how that is possible. Goldfish have a digestive track that is like of straight pipe. What goes in goes right out. So they don’t have a belly that will get full.

The also seem to indicate that algae also kill fish. WRONG again; Algae grows in an aquarium because of excess nutrients. Algae are plants and guess what, fish eat plants, some eat only plant material and baby fish eat only micro algae when young to survive until larger to eat other foods.

Lesson is this: don’t allow TV to teach your kids.
