I updated and bumped a thread on AC, got them on the ball too.

Actually I started the thread on AC the first day my boyfriend showed me the paper, and I too am saddened by the meager 6 page response, but since many of the members on AC are members of MFK...

Chris, I haven't seen this mornings Post Standard yet, but I'm about to turn on news 10, I hope to see either no news or good news. <3 BTW let me know when those shirts are ready. I know I want one.
And BottomFeeder has a good point about the amazon exhibit at NY aquarium. if you haven't already reach out to them. Also, I had a random idea last night... what about SUNY ESF... they could maybe use him as a teaching pet? I know it's a long shot and a totally random idea.

There are 95,000 members on AC. We need to bump that thread every hour so as many people can it as possible.

Maybe the answer is just starting a new thread on AC, asking the people to sign the petition. Your thread is a few weeks old, so people who already looked at it are not going back.
 
I signed the petition last week when I first came across it. It amazes me with all the real problems facing us today, that public officials feel the need to focus so much time, energy, and money on executing a single fish. If the powers that be would spend half of that time and energy on educating themselves and the public about this type of fish, we would all be better off. If nothing else, they should take this guy around to all the local grade schools and have him give the kids a little show and tell on fish keeping.
 
Signed and I hope it all works out for you Chris and Rocky! This is a said story indeed. He should be able to keep his Channa that he is obvioulsy givin proper care for.
