WoW you would rather watch your fish suffer and die and never have a chance. wrong hands or not they still have a better chance of living than just killing them, I hope you dont have a girlfriend or did you kill her too!
 
Hey bud i will help you out. I will hold your fish for you as lonbg as you want. I will pay for shipping and keep them for you untill you are ready for them back. I would also be willing to help you in other ways. Pm me if you need any help bro. I understand the dilema you are in.



OP, please take this guy up on his offer. He's wiling to help you out. Please for the sake of the animals you raised and cared for, do it.
 
People who catch fish and kill them, kill them to eat them. Not because they took on a responsibility as an owner and want to cop out.
Not always. there's sport fishing & taxidermy mounts all over some peoples' walls.
and, AS IF the OP sounded thrilled about everything to begin with. He hasn't even killed his fish, he POSTED.
Fishing reasons don't change the fact that good fish are purposely killed every day by hobbyists, most don't talk about it unless they're feeding a monster & then it's a brag fest, people always post about using most awesome species' babies for feeders for convenience and nobody flames that- much less compares it to murdering humans.

I could see if he lived on the moon and there were nobody to care for the fish, but there seems to be plenty of people to take them, and pay money. Seems like a win-win for everybody, seeing as he lost his job. Sell them for what you can get. You get money which you need, buyer gets fish which he wants, and you MIGHT make a friend out of it too. Easy.
yeah, well maybe now that he has committed social-suicide-by-MFK-cops, he can see some options differently than yesterday. who knows?

Now, this is a good & decent human being.
 
if I was having tough times... and couldnt care for my fish... and couldnt sell them for DECENT money .... either what I paid for them..... or a little more since they are most likely a lot bigger.... I would probably just eat them.
 
noone has ever given me a freebie....... I wouldnt give them away either. cause if they cant afford to buy the fish chances are they cant afford to care for them either.
 
It's the selfish attitude that is rubbing everybody the wrong way I suspect.

The OP statement about others profiting from his fish did come off sounding badly, but he just lost his job. doesn't sound like he has the Fort Knox collection of fish, mainly just some that he was eeking by to take care of, to begin with.
 
I don't know why people see these fish as sort of investment that is supposed to generate some sort of return on capital for them. You are into exotic fish for the wrong reason.

If you have a dog you can no longer care for; maybe an old lab that you grew up with.. Would you kill it rather than seeing it end up in a good and loving home? Or do you first think to yourself "can I sell him for the same price or for a profit?" I have never heard anyone trying to sell their dog when they can no longer care for them... They simply try to find the best home possible for them as first priority.

Seems to me, an exotic fish is just an item you use to show off to your friends. something that makes you feel special about yourself.....something you acquired so you can benefit out of in some way, either through profit in money, or the envy and admirations from others.

You must have been victimized or been taken advantage of at a young age to have such strong selfish believe as "if cant have it why should they", and "if I didn't get it for free, why should they?"
 
I used to have a friend whose parents put their dog to sleep.b Ecause they were bored of that one, after they killed him, they went and got another dog the same day. Their are some crazy people out there
