i think he means someone posting they have a fish rescue, then taking in fish for free, and then turning around and selling the free fish they just got as a "rescue" for profit
Seen this recently! Guy on my local club was desperate to move his gold nugget and had to have it gone asap etc etc, I offered a spot at my place and he wants $80...
Yes I’ve seen this. A guy on one of the fb groups I’m in does this. Says he’s a rescue, but you can easily tell the fish are for his personal tanks. He then sells fish as he gets bored of them or does trades.
Not what I’d consider a “rescue”. Just taking in unwanted fish and selling at his leisure. Something anyone can do and is really just flipping. To me a rescue should have more of a purpose then just personal gain or interest.

Made a new freind a couple months back.. had ads on kijiji of his fish rescue... but actually rehomes for free... quarantines fish and medicated them.. then rehomes!
There are people doing the right thing... too bad it's so far and few inbetween

If that person has decent tanks to house the fish it's not necessarily a bad thing. Those large fish that are "rescued" often have no where to go otherwise, or their owner can no longer provide what the fish need. But certainly that's not what bonafide fish rescue does.
it's a chicken sh** way to make money and certainly unethical, but some folks are "flippers" .. my definition of a flipper is a person that regularly takes advantage of people's misery to make money.. real estate clowns started the "trend" and it caught on..
