My fish got stolen ?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Any updates today? Such as with the camera?

Just reread and saw the hurt bichir. My condolences about it, and I suggest to euthanize it if it doesn't improve after a few days to a week.
Lol no updates. I knew the police wouldn’t be much help, or they haven’t looked through my case yet. They rather care about other cases than stolen fish cause they think it’s of unimportance. I really can’t do much about it. I’m just hoping and praying soemthing will happen at this point. The bichirs may even be dead, who knows
 
Unfortunately, compared to many things the police must deal with on a daily basis...this is indeed unimportant. I wish you good luck, but...it doesn't sound good.
 
I feel for your loss but have to say I would not have trusted this company, or anyone living for that matter to do this unsupervised. Tanks and fish have to moved very carefully. The vast majority of people in the world do not take our hobby seriously at all. I'm betting they did this job as quickly as possible and killed your fish in the process, conveniently forgot to mention it to you as they deemed the details unimportant ("its just some fish, man"). The sickly nature of your Palmas indicates possible damage from mishandling or improper water treatment/acclimating. I would be surprised if this was in fact a fish heist, but crazier things have happened. Watch for them on craigslist or the marketplace here.
 
Any updates on the hurt bichir? I hope it at least ends up ok, bearing in mind that Backfrom is very unfortunately correct about how little most people take this hobby seriously and care about the fish getting hurt.

Maybe contact the movers and ask if the fish got hurt, if you didn't do so already?

Yes. Checked also. It would also be impossible for 3 bichirs to jump within a span of 1 day. Idk what happened either during the transportation but my palmas also can’t even move properly now. **** the movers.

I’m wondering if there was some kind of accident and they died, so the movers just tossed the bodies. The messed up palmas makes me wonder

When it goes up for air and goes back down, it flips over and becomes upside down. It Does eventually turn over but looks like it’s suffering slightly. I may have to euthanize it

Everything was done and contacted, but still no positive response.
