Why are TSN heads becoming worse and worse? Is it due to the farming of the fish? My tsn had a straight head and now im seeing angled heads and to me it looks like a degenerate trait. Here is a normal vs sloped head

Better change the figures ($) at the bottom of this DrZ!!!!
I agree I wouldnt want a TSN that doesnt look as it should swimming in its home waters with a straight snout. My Sturio has a slightly turned up nose which seems prevalent with them as well.

worse and worse..............i agree
 
dont knowmuch bout TSN but i was wondering bout the funny heads too.
 
it doesn't have anything to do with there being like 7 different types or so of tsn does it?
 
do you think this could ba a result of the farming? not living in it's "natural habitat? or "bad genes"? possibly both?!
