Walmart, making a difference

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
edit: I made it a point for a good year or so to go into the walmarts here and tell the manager what a reproach it was for them to have living creatures in such conditions. As of about 6 mths ago both of the walmarts here stopped selling fish, not that I take credit but many voices can not be silenced.

Ah I am hearing the band supertramp in my mind right now singing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5DrR161qcI

Please do not take offense at the above statement.

I also hear the cooper brothers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrfMgCLe0UI&feature=PlayList&p=54166F11DD3760D7&index=0&playnext=1

While noble in your thoughts, the cold hard reality of walmart is they do not give a rat's butt about what responsible fish keepers try to tell them. And if you go to work for them they will swallow your soul and suck the life out of you!!!!

The best end for walmart is an absolute boycott so their fish dept becomes a wasteland of bloated fish corpses that becomes so repulsive that the kids run screaming from that area of the store so traumatized by seen dead fishies that parents en masse assault walmart with complaints and they stop selling fish.
 
let me add with absolutely no information about them just a sign and a price (which was 6 dollars if i had the proper tank i would of bought them in a heartbeat)
 
haha none taken great song :D, what is one boycott going to do though? nothing one boycott isn't going to stop the trade in that store realistically which is unfortunate
 
try watching them sell albino channel cats oscars green spoted puffers columbian sharks and the ocational id shark. ive actualy baught all these from them exept the id.
 
o i forgot one the magic pacu that only growes to 6 inches. yet they have that a pink kissing gourami growes to 12 inches.lol walmart has alot of good fish jokes to bad they cost the fish thier lives.
 
ya they do every now and then the guy at walmart that i mentiond befor he tells people 3 foot and then he says thats when they slow down groth cause they never realy stop groing. this site has alot of power behind it even for walmart lol i think if we all joind forces we culd have walmart that has knowledge.
