Hi, it's me again from Indonesia. I just receive a Youtube link about someone who just started receiving and keeping Erythrinus. Maybe i'm overreacting, but i'm sure when i watch the video, he really dont learn much about Erythrinus. I really have no intention to take offense to anybody, you can call me overreacting, but as an Erythrinus keeper, I really break my heart watching this video.

I honestly don't see the problem here other then how the fish acted during the water change. I also wouldn't say he's housing em as pets either since he said in his video that these fish were all for sale. He also said that he's never kept wolf fish of any kind before and that this was stepping into something new to him.

If you don't mind me asking what about this video breaks your heart? I've never kept wolf fish either so maybe I'm missing something here but to me this looks like a normal fish retailer buying, keeping and selling fish.

The op had me expecting to see the guy toss a snakehead or a piranha in the tank with the little wolves!

Like i said, maybe i'm overreacting. But seeing Ery jumping and hit their head like that, that's whats breaking my heart. I really love this fish. I'm sorry if i'm wrong.

Personally I'd agree that it is painful to see these fish acting the way they are but also it does make sense when ya think of where they come from. Being in rivers and small streams it's just natural instinct to continuously keep going up stream even if it causes pain or injury to itself. Honestly knowing how tough wolf fish are I expect the one that got hurt to make a full recovery.

Thank you so much Magnus Bane. I'm agree with you. I'm really sorry, i'm just being too sentimental.
 
Hey,no need for you to apologize for voicing your feelings on the subject.We here all like or love fish to some degree but we dont all feel the exact same about them.
I was glad to see that what went on in the video was not as bad as what I'd prepared myself to see as I have seen some pretty heinous things done to aquarium fish in posts on instagram.

Yes i agree with you. Thank you. And you're right, we all here love fish, whatever it is.
