How is it any less sad when your fish eats live feeders? What's the difference? They are live creatures and i put them in the tank knowing they will be killed.
Hilarious

Yeah somehow people seemed to miss that part
The difference is the feeders are added intentionally to be killed and eaten. The feeders serve a purpose as food (though I don't use feeders). Throwing a helpless fish that is not intended to be used as food in with an aggressive fish just to be killed is a big difference. I guess the comparison would be valid if the GT actually killed and consumed the Gourami instead of just killing it. The funny part is the fact that his girlfriend believed that the Gourami would make a life-long friend with a GT. My wife tends to let her heart decide what she wants in my tanks. But i have to tell her know many times. There is no way I'm going to let her put a Ghost Knife in the same tank with my 9" Red Devil. It's much easier just to set up a community tank with compatible fish that pleases her.rolandk10;5158504;5158504 said:

That pink kissing had no chance against 2 very aggressive GTs. I did it to teach her a lesson and I'm sure she learned

I don't see a difference. He knew that fish would die. Therefore your "intention" explanation doesn't hold. Also, I'm pretty sure those fish won at carnivals are feeders. That makes them possible pets too.
I know what you are trying to say with regards to pet vs food but I still don't see the difference. Killing a fish is killing a fish. Period.
I am of the mind: "I don't give a #$%^ one way or the other, I'm just pointing out the lack of difference here.
