PetSmart of Phoenix, Ariz., is recalling about 10,200 glass fish bowls.
The fish bowls can crack, shatter or break during normal handling, posing a laceration hazard.
The company has received 10 reports of the glass fish bowl breaking during normal use, including five reports of cuts to fingers and a knee. Four of the cuts required stitches. One required surgery for a lacerated tendon in a consumer’s finger.
This recall involves the 1.75-gallon glass fish bowl that is shaped like a brandy snifter. They were sold under the Great Choice or Top Fin brand names with SKU number 5140161 and UPC code 737257187092. The SKU and UPC codes are printed on a white sticker on the bottom of the fish bowl.
The fish bowls, manufactured in China, were sold exclusively at PetSmart stores nationwide from February 2013, through September 2013, for about $20.
Consumers should immediately stop using the fish bowl and return it to any PetSmart store for a full refund.
