probably just a pathetic troll mate. try not to let him get to you.

A simple quick search of previous posts would save you in your slanderous accusations, unless your intentions are of the trollish type;)

lol, i dont mean as a troll to all topics and as their sole purpose for being on the site but trying to get a rise out of people on this specific topic. he could have been in a funny mood, for example, and just wanted to annoy people. anyway it was to try and draw them out to add to the debate by explaining why they thought it was cool but it didnt work.

im sorry but if you know how they do it and you still think its cool then you obviously dont care for fish. i pity your fish.

its either that or your one of the "funny guys" mentioned earlier that is just trying to get a rise out of people.
I voted because I thought the picture looked cool. Nothing at all in the original post said anything regarding the practice used in juicing the fish. I simply thought that the fish looked cool, so I voted cool.

Personally, I dislike hybrids, such as blood parrots, and I also dislike juicing fish. However, I think that the picture looked neat and so that is why I voted Cool. If the post had said anything regarding the techniques used on the fish, then yes, it is cruel.

And if you "pity my fish" based on an opinion of a picture, you must ride the short bus to school.

SO what are we voting on here?

The picture, which is the ONLY thing provided in the original post?

I voted Cool, It is a very interesting visual piece and is a better photo then most of this month's POTM

Are we voting on this hybrid fish? Which is up for debate whether right or wrong, but mainly comes down to personal preference.

Or are we voting on the very bad practice of dying fish to enhance sales? I would doubt any body would vote "cool" on this besides the profiteers themselves.

As usual these poles come with a lack of complete info, so getting true results is generally impossible.
I voted on the picture as well, since no other information was given. Nothing at all was stated about the bad practice of dying fish.

Ian8834, you say that you understand how fish are dyed. Many people consider this precedure to be detrimental to a fish's health. Are you aware of this? Do you have experience with dyed fish that have lived a healthy life? I'm just curious about why you think dyed fish are cool. These questions go out to anyone else who might have picked cool as well.
As I just stated, I think the picture looked cool. I am personally against any form of hybrid and juicing of fish. However, I think that the concept used and the color variations looked interesting in the picture. Hence why I voted cool.

Cruel.........but no crueler than many of our most popular breeds of dog which are physical nightmares! The same desires produce frankenfish and bulldogs.

+1

Dyed fish are no different than "in-demand" breeds of canine that are overly inbred, prone to hip dysplasia, and weak organ functions (kidney/UT). That said, the picture is sad and the people admiring probably just aren't aware of the practice.

this whole "species" as a fish disgusts me and makes me sick.

they shouldn't be aloud to live or keep being made, i mean they can't even close their mouths!

^^^^^^^ Agree Totally
 
I want to throw up whenever I see nasty ass parrot hybrid "things". They must be exterminated.
