The dream tiger???

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I think it's cool. I don't understand why some people can't just accept different people like different things.
 
As hobbyists and fishkeepers, we have a responsibility to care for and maintain our animals as naturally as possible for the best of the species.

This thread goes a lot deeper than "different people like different things". This is an animal that has a genetic deformity that could weaken its species if allowed to breed.
This isnt a fish with a missing barbel or a torn fin.

Nature dosent allow deformed and weaker animals to survive for a reason... Natures cruel but if left if left to do its thing, is brutally efficient. If deformed or inferior fish/animals breed, the offspring weaken the genetics of their species and this is not something to be encouraged by paying/charging high prices for.

Thats why its wrong on a scientific level, not a "Shame the poor little deformed fish" level.
 
It's just a hobby....

Anyway I understand where u coming from. This fish is only for my tank n my admiring n occasion update here. No intention to breed it. So no problem right.

We are hobbyists. We are not raising fish to be released into the wild. "survival of the fittest" does not apply here.
 
Well TP stated that he paid king aro price for this tiger meaning he paid over $2.5k for it :eek:

That patchy tiger is not a deformity it's a very low grade fish that fisherman would normally throw back unless someone starts a crazy crazy like they did a few years back when everyone in Singapore was asking LFS to get patch ST

TP what you need to remember is MFK is not AF we are not all going to say nice pick up bro just because that's what you want to hear

Bro u are right, I paid more than 2.5k, I know it's crazy but I really love it a lot. If I tell u the asking price maybe you fall off the chair

I use to own two patchy ST and their uniqueness are simply awesome. I felt special or to u it's a defect fish, but its is something very rare n i felt its worth sharing. That's why I post this little king in three forum of which one is mfk.

Btw if I am affect by the negative comments I would have just disappear instead of replying to u n others. I am fine with theses comments Cos I accept not everyone likes the same thing.

I hope u see my point. I never expect all to congrats me
 
Hi TP you must be very rich man. > 2.5k ****(higher price then ST).... if I manage to get something like tat I know who to look for to sell to. hehehe....Since it help you (I know it must be like a medicine to make you sleep well) good on you that u get him.

You have a very very wonder piece there. Trust me there are alot of collectors like myself that would pay you a arm and leg for it. You are a very lucky man. If you want to sell i can arrange shipping.
