Thoughts on Fancy Goldfish

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
If you're coming to this thread late, please peruse its pages for the fantastic pictures of fancy goldfish!

And with that i'm signing off this thread. Good fishkeeping to you. And if you are ever thinking about Fancy Goldfish, give them a try, it's more than fish keeping, it's an art form.

Peace.
 
Okay, this is getting ridiculous now :nilly:. I feel like the harbinger of doom having started a thread on ethics.

I take full credit in keeping this thread alive last couple of days. albeit maybe to your dismay......and everyone else's

but we can all agree, with the exception of one person painfully and obviously, that this thread should just be left alone and let it drift down into the abyss of forgotten threads of page 2 and beyond
 
I meant ethic of us creating them, lol. Like you said somewhere (I can't even keep track of pages at this point) there is a reason it's survival of the fittest and that's because nature culls out the weak so only the most fit for survival will live on and reproduce and eventually evolve into something even better at what it does.
Your fault for made this thread. Should had keep your opinions to yourself.
 
Not opinion, ethics, very different things in my book.
so what? Everyone has different preferences. Some people likes hybrids. Some people likes glow in dark fishes. Some people likes wild caught fishes. Some people likes colorful inbred electric blue cichlids. Some people likes illegal or banned fishes. All of them comes in with ethics. Fancy goldfish should be one of your least concerns when there are concerns about collecting endemic natives or illegally harvested protected darter/minnow species. I have ethics for collecting/harvesting natives out of the wild. Overharvest or overcollecting fishes can be harmful to their populations. And yet all we talked is about a frigging goldfish.

well, to be fair, if this thread was about all the other stuff, then we'd be talking about that

but since this thread was about goldfish, that's what the center of discussion was about
