Have you guys ever felt bad or guilty about buying a fish , or anything related to fish ?
Anyone take a step back and say " Man, i think ive went overboard with this one "
 
I felt bad when I bought a fish when I was younger and didn't do the proper research on it. I had to small of a tank and I couldn't feed the fish proparly and it ended up just wasting away and dieing. I felt really bad. That is now why I do a lot of reasearch on a fish before I buy it, and make sure that I have adaquete space.

Thats cool. I had my rare "buyers remorse" when i was in college , i moved and left my fish buddies behind... online fish boards werent all that back then so when i bought a 75 gallon for my tiny apartment i telling myself " Wesley, you definitely went overboard now "...

That was the last time. I never regretted buying any fish that i have.. i actually regret fish that i sell !
 
Yeah I just got rid of a fish that I regret selling. I took it to a fish auction expecting to get some money for it. But no, it went for only $6 and I paid $108 for it. But at least my friend got it, but it still makes me mad when I go to his house and see it, cause it has better color now then when I had it.
 
I half regretted transporting a 180 and a few boxes of fish to another country. The journey was a nightmare and most of them died. However, I am glad I have my tank with my surviving fish and a few new ones.
 
I had remorse after buying red belly pacus. I bought 4 :WHOA: of them and only had a 55 gal tank:screwy: . I traded them for store credit at a LFS. I didnt want them to suffer cuz i was stupid. That's why I research my fish before i buy them even if it means missing out on a fish for a time.
 
My walmart Koi. I felt bad as soon as I realized I couldn't care for them properly.
 
I always feel bad about spending as much as I do, but I sit back and realize that its all worth it in the end. I'm going to have one of the coolest gathering rooms ever when I'm done.
 
There are fish that I regret getting rid of.
