I am not opposed to eating your fish

it's just that they are your pets and I think you should respect them to a certain degree that you still know that you are taking a life

I think people should know that there is a differance between just fish and their pets...

that's all

I am not so sure it is healthy to eat fish from your aquaria either

it might make you sick because of the meds

just my .02 cents

BTW, was the discus good???
 
That discus was already dead wasn't it? :D Looks sickly.
 
You (I) and all the other finger-pointing MFKers daily buy and eat meat from animals that were directly or indirectly killed at our convenience. These animals are mainly mammals or birds with highly developped nervous system and intelligence many times superior to any of the fish we keep, yet almost all are kept in inadequate conditions and suffer incomparably more then a fish possibly could.

It doesn't make torturing fish right. But it does make it look rather insignificant in comparison with all the other animal and human abuse going on.

I agree with the rest of your post including the woman being a b1tch (veuruckte cleaned her tank for free! only a b1tch would complain). I disagree with the accusation of immorality as this incidence of her behaviour is still ethically superior to that of any meat, leather etc etc consumer.

Whether or not you define something as a "pet" and assign it more rights, is not everybody's problem. Whether or not a fish is bread for food or is chosen to be loved with perverse dedication as many nerds here do, it is still the same fish. Many of the fish species used as feeders are more intelligent than the "pets" they are fed to. Where is the moral of that practice?

It is bad enough the Law of Western countries arbitrarily prohibits the consumption of canine and feline meat while allowing to abuse pigs and stuff.

It is this short-sighted pet-adoring reality-ignoring atittude that is immoral. The b1tch'es slate is spotless.

damn shekes :clap
