Feeding live fish is illegal...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
You say the law about chickens in California is stupid but then wonder why the price of eggs goes higher. To redo or build a new barn will cost those farmers millions and people believe they should just suck it up. There a also laws in Europe regarding what size tank and the environment for aquarium fish is this okay. Think about it who do you want making these regulations because they might be easy to meet today but what about next year.
I am telling you all now the reason these laws are being made is the animal rights and they won't be happy until no one can own an animal. Years ago I was watching a talk show there was an animals rights person on there saying owning animals should be banned. The host said but you own a pet dog and the woman said no that is my companion animal. Ever since that time you will notice the word pet has changed to companion animal. So don't sit back and say new regulations for chicken barns are ok because your aquarium will be next. All of these problems are not across the pond they are here we are all in denial.
 
Isn't pet vs companion animal just arguing semantics? More so in the case of dogs, maybe cats.

^ right, they both literally mean the same thing.

My fish are companions! Especially my dat and red wolf, they both are very interactive

Really though. Its a whole lot better in my opinion to feed a fish some minnow that was bred to be used as bait/feeder then using a pellet made by wild caught baitfish..

Nutritionally, yes, pellet is way better. Enviromentally, NOOOO attacking the food chain at such a low level is part of the reason we are seeing the bigger ocean preds dissapearing.. either way there is a pitfall

Right just because it had the "chance to escape" well how about people do a real study to see how often fish do "escape" the jaws of other fish.. i gurantee the % is in the predators favor
