Ban from Fish Stores?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
come on guys. i have worked in 3 large well known lfs's in san diego. you get used to it. but theses things breed by the hundreds or thousands, so thats the way it goes. if they get too big eat em. if they didnt sell all these fish to all these people, we'd all be paying much more for our fish. they have to make money. and it seems like a lot of you are fish racists. feeders are born to die by your monster fish, but your poor monsters getting too big for the 55 gallon is cruel. you gotta look at it as all things die, some have it better than others, and
if they didnt breed better than rabbits we'd have a much fdifferent hobby. i know it sucks to thinkof things dying, but it happens to us all. i used to throw out dead fish all the time, some neon tetras just dont fare to well, some baby arowanas with egg sacs just dont make it. so what can ya do. if there are buyers there will be sellers. you guys want people to start taking our monster fish and making them illegal to own because they get too large? I HOPE NOT. cause if so you guys are in the WRONG fish forum. happy fish keeping

Dude you are a freaking sociopath.

yeah about wal-mart - some of my biggest head aches working at a LFS started with "the guy at wal-mart told me........"

what lfs would those be, i bet ive been to them :)
 
there is this lfs that keeps this sukura 8-10in sukura ray inside this tank where they part it to give it only a space of about 10-12inch space. and its been there a long time, about at least 3-4weeks. coz no1 buys it. i really pity it.

but i dont have any money and space to get it though, else i would have..
 
i used to work in a pet store, and one time a guy said, " it will grow as big as its surroundings, right". I was pissed. I said would you lock your child in a small cage so he won't grow taller. i made my point accross and told him to find another hobby. Joel
