There is no water filter in that tank, there is no heater, there is no light, and on top of all that it's way smaller than two goldfish should have! A general rule of thumb is 20 gallons PER FISH. Goldfish also need to have a light that should stay on for at least 8 hours a day. It's pretty clear the producers just wanted to put two fish in to be cute and get some attention but didn't bother to THINK about the actual care said goldfish would require. When treated properly goldfish typically live for about 20 years in captivity but these poor fish will be lucky if they make it to the finale! The producers need to understand that if they want to put fish into the house that's fine but they need to be ready to spend the money and time required to give them a proper set up.

Nice to see some people still care about animal welfare - really well spotted BigBr0ther. If there's any hate, ignore it. I hope BB put this right soon.
