An Australian family has been told to get rid of their pet fish – or face the threat of eviction.
Fiona and Rick, who asked that their surname not be published, and their three children were shocked when their landlord issued a notice saying they were in breach of their tenancy agreement because they had a tank with 15 South American fish in it.
The couple admit they broke their agreement by getting a cat – to control rats from nearby bush – and have given it away. But Fiona says the demand to get rid of the fish and their son's pet parrot is heartless and ridiculous.
"We never thought for a moment that a fish tank would not be allowed. It's just a joke."
