    I am going to ignore the potential lecturing about parents, trust, responsibility for pets, blah blah blah because this is the fish section and it sound like you are going to do this anyway. Wait...is your question "how to get to petco?" That isn't really a fish question but here is an answer...get ready...a map, or use your mobile device, it could probably guide you there with the gps.

    If you need to sneak the stuff in, why not go into the basement and find a box that the stuff will fit into, empty it out. If anyone asks, you are working on a school project idea or say you wanted to recycle something, sounds legit. Hide the box outside the house, in some bushes or a shed. Find a safe way to get to the store....... You know what, i must be getting old because this is starting to sound like a bad idea to tell a young person. Sorry, i have a good plan but my conscious just kicked me.

    Why get a fish if you can't even place it in a room where you're going to see it?

    This will destroy any trust your parents have in you. Try asking them and showing them the money you have. Promise that you'll pay and care for it.

    Or set them down and explain that you are old enough to help with the dog and guinea pig. It doesn't sound like you really want a fish, you just want a pet of your own and the best way to get one is to start caring for what you already have.

    If they still say no, just accept it, sneaking a fish in will not help.

    You won't be able to hide a fish tank and I know if my kid pulled something like this I would get rid of the animal that day. Just wait until you move out.
