That's disgusting! You should complain to the manager and tell them that you are writing a letter to the company! (Our wal mart stopped selling fish and other small animals altogether, and I'm very happy about it!)

You should politely call their customer service department. You will be on hold for about 5 minutes and then you'll talk to a rep who will listen to everything you have to say.

I got the number from another forum. I called because my local WalMart was horribly dirty (piles of bones in the tanks).

They fixed the issues in under a week.

Now I keep the number on speed dial in my cellphone, just in case.
(800) 925-6278

PS
They will NOT ask your age (didn't ask mine, and it would not be polite anyway). Just be polite and give them some concrete examples of issues that need to be resolved and they will pass the info to the appropriate party. WalMart does not want to be known for animal cruelty.
