Here's another one of his reply's

theres a few threads i have seen and all posters are pro killing fish and using them for feeders. one guy wants to kill his convicts because they ate the fry they bred.... every poster is like "yay feed them to this fish and that fish" personally i dont think those people should be allowed to keep any pets with that attitude. if someone on here took that view he'd be burnt by almost everyone of us, those convicts should have been left at the fish shop for someone who would care for them.

:screwy:
 
yo two face! ****** slaps both of dan dans faces* im reading this too y'know!
 
I read the thread, I also read the convict thread.
As to the convicts, I would not be mad that adults ate fry, they do that some times. If the owner wants to use them as feeders that is his choice. Surplus convicts make good feeders and home raised ones are safer than store bought.
As to us being monsterous barbarians, maybe some of us are, others are true sadists, regular joes, people who do not use feeders for reasons of disease or morality, and even vegans. Most of us have reasoned out our own paths to whatever set of values we live by just as you have.
I use feeders as a part of any piscavores diet because the fish I am keeping seem to prefer them and they seem to stay in better health. By properly treating or raising the feeders I minimize the risk of disease. I get no real thrill from it except that of watching my fish make a good strike.
On the other hand I both hunt and fish so I might not be the best example.
I do not tell you to use feeders any more than I would tell you what politics to expouse, or what god to worship. I do ask that you be a bit less ready to publicly condemn others for your perceptions of the actions of a few.
 
Yeah, I knew which thread it was as soon as I read the post on the other site.
Fish eat other fish.
Thats life. Don't like it then Don't watch.
 
Guppy, you do have a point and we could go in to it in far more depth but lets face it who can be bothered with yet another boring debate on forum where no one agrees. its pointless. i had a view and an opinion and im the person that will say it to your face.

you wouldnt feed your cat to your dog because it ate its kittens and i feel that as pet owners we need to show a degree of responsibility while they are in our care. i felt it was cruel and pointless and every poster on that thread had given me the impression that they would see the convicts happily killed. as we all know first impression are strong and that was mine of this forum. while i realise the posts of this forums members dont directly represent the forum its a good indicator of general opinion when its freely acceptable to make such comments.

FI may not be as busy as this forum but the heart is there and the fish come first. we have to deal with many many newbies so the content may be boring for many of your forum users (it is for me too but i soldier on giving advice so that fish can be looked after properly) i for one will continue to use this forum if nothing more than to put across my own opinions and maybe contribute to saving fish like those convicts.
 
and thanks for the welcome
