New natives

[scalesandfins]

Not really.
Ok the fish could get a non native disease or parasite that could damage the population, ok nothing non native of that lake has lived or been fed to the fish.
That's about the only argument.
And I have thought of that and taken measures to prevent that.
Other than being illegal. What am I doin wrong?

We've already told you, in several different ways, what you are doing wrong. Besides the fact that its illegal, what other reasoning do you need? Seriously....like I said before, people like you are what &$%@ things up for the rest of us responsible people.

Holy crap. Ok guys. I remember why I don't get on this forum anymore. No educated opinions. Just repeating things you hear from other people. And **** you read.

Gotta love the I'm right and everyone else is wrong attitude. Your saying they all have no educated (I assume you mean un-educated) opinions. Have you noticed that not one person to reply has agreed with you...that should say something.

Everything is a touchy subject around here now. No one really knows anything about fish.

Dude, that is honestly the most bull****y thing I have heard on this forum so far. And I read a lot of this forum. This is one of the worlds largest fish keeping organization, and you say no one knows anything about fish. I bet that there are people on this forum that are twice your age with a degree in marine biology, and I bet any one of them would love to beat your ass in for that comment. I just can't believe you said. You say you know about fish and that no one else does, but you want to release fish int the wild? At least dig yourself a pond to keep them in. And don't make comments like that on this site, because that is a personal insult to every one of us who cares and knows about fish. Which, I'm pretty sure is everybody.

And this? Those are the only ways anyone can learn. Tell me a different way besides experience. Every one of us has learned all we know in those three ways, because there aren't any other ways. Tell all of us something you know that you haven't learned in those three ways.

Everybody on this thread really has been pretty rude about communicating to him to not release them into the wild. People should probably be at least half way nice about it then move on to answering his questions. BECAUSE if you actually care and don't want him to release them if your a jerk hes just going to do it anyway either because he got upset and doesn't want to listen to people who were rude to him or just out of spite. He didn't know and its an honest mistake. Obviously I agree he shouldn't release them back, but, it is what it is. Berating people never gets them to do what you want.

just my opinion, i agree he shouldn't do it but this isn't going to get him to listen

I honestly just don't see a real problem...
Like I said before NOTHING non native to THAT LAKE has been fed housed or even been in contact with these fish or there tank.... So basically I'm just keeping them in a small protected piece of the lake untill they are big enough not to be eaten. Where is the problem again?

And I said this bc I have heard the same thing every time I post. No one is listening and replying with a new answer. If someone could actually tell me what is wrong with what I am doing then I'm all ears. But don't sit here and babble about its just not cool your screwing everything up for us awesome people that do nothing wrong. And your fish is goin to kill everything in the lake bc of some non native parasite or bacteria.

I would never advocate releasing captive fish into public waters. However, just out of curiosity, biologically speaking, if the tank is 100% only ever exposed to creatures, water, and objects from the lake the fish were collected from and being released to. What is the reasoning behind not releasing them? Obviously it is illegal and could be risky, but purely theoretically, what could go wrong?
