Seeing this really upset me....

As long as there is a product that people will buy, there will be someone making that product. Its that simple. Those are deformed hybrid parrots.... clearly that wasn't heinous enough... now they are tattooed deformed hybrid parrots.

Well said.

Wow. Maybe when you sober up, you'll realize how little sense you're making.

LOL.

About 2 years ago at my local walmart they were selling tattoed Mollies with hearts on them.

Wait for Valentines day and you'll see more mollies with tattooed hearts than usual.

Well if anyone lives in the Seattle Washington area, I would be happy to tell you the store these fish I took that pic of are in, I don't want to post it live here just incase it could be "slander" or something. Better to be safe than sorry I guess. lol. Just PM me if you want to know.

VERY WISE not to post a name, glad you did not. Thank you for posting too. As much as it pisses me off to see it still happening, people need to see it's still happening for it to stop happening. Anyone coming across altered fish in their local pet shops should have a respectable discussion with a manager or owner. The more flak they get from customers for carrying them, the less likely they are to carry them.

those are tattoos?? they look like ugly accidental blotches to me.. or am i missing something? this is terrible.. and what do these look like when the fish grow up? i mean, if someone gets something to look specific, does it even look halfway decent by the time the fish is big? though i guess people who'd buy these fish probably don't get them to adulthood...
