Dyeing on fish

I'm with pinkbloodparrot on this.

Now is that such a shocker? ;)

I cant believe anyone would condone releasing a hybrid and/or captive fish into the wild. That is one of the worst things aquarium keepers could do. Let alone because you think they will just die anyways, which is killing the fish, which is against what you said in the first place. :thud:


Gah I told myself I wouldnt reply to this thread. :coffee2:

So you are saying they should ended up being killed, rather than given away to others? I definetly raise them till they rest in peace, rather than giving it away or killing it(which ofcourse I'll never do that).
But you know something, fish will not survive in place where they are not native, so for example; someone dont like his hybrid fish and release it to the wild lake or river, with no doubt they will die for sure, unless they are native on that place. No hybrid are native as we all know, unless the fish in the wild cross breed each other. So I think there are no big chance of freaky mutation in the wild. P.S male blood parrot are sterile.
The only thing I want people to stop is to stop dyeing fish! Agree, Agree.

I'm not saying they should be killed. I'm saying they should not leave your own home. Ever. LuvMyKribs already explained the releasing into the wild thing, so I won't bring it up again.

My response was simply an explanation of why people dislike hybridization. I also did not mean to imply they would breed in the wild. What I mean is that if you give the hybrids to someone, and they then give them to a lfs, someone else could potentially buy the hybrids thinking that they are a pure strain, and thus the gene pool in the aquarium trade will become tainted, and that is a bad thing.
 
I dont beileve in Dyed fish, but my older brother last christmas bought me 2 painted white skirts, he told me they were just regular whiteskirts, until i read up on them i realized they were dyed. I still have both of them today, both heathy and nothing wrong color is still there.

Then why do you bother write a reply in the first place? just to increase your post count? or just to act like the smart one? ;)

She replied in an attempt to combat your hopelessly flawed logic, and erroneus statements. If she was just repying to increase her post count (which would be totally asinine), she would have posted something like this.

"yep"

"Hi there,
whenever I post new post, I realize the post number does not increase, it stays at 74, as you can see here below my avatar. I already posted about 4 new post and my post number is supposed to be 78, but it stays 74?? I tried refreshing my browser but it doesn't help... please help."

Yeah right, look who's talking here. you are posting useless post, your reply should at least related to my thread, rather than acting like teacher and post a useless reply. P.S dont reply to this thread if you dont have anything related to it. Why do you have to reply? just to mess with people's business?
I bet now your temper rise and begin to mess with me. Come on, go on, and at the end let see who started the problem.

Really, it's time for everyone to chill. Pause. Look over your posts. If you see any posts in which you are criticizing someone personally, rather than having a healthy debate about a topic, then stop doing it. If your posts are free of personal sniping, then sit back, feel good about yourself and poke around the forums for an interesting thread.

This is a fish board. We are not debating the fate of the free world. Time to relax. Please.
 
I agree... everyone should chill. Its hard though when some blatantly stupid things are being said (I feel yah mooman). His post wasnt useless, it was YOU who originally posted the useless post, and he just replied to it.

This is why I didnt want to post to this topic... because this subject will always get out of hand. Especially when its started by someone who appears to not really have the 'responsible aquarium husbandry' thing down. ;) PinkBloodParrot, you are just feuling the fire by saying those things. And you still havent said anything about your 'just release the fish into the wild' solution? Are you still going to do this to hybrids?

And I may be "acting like the smart one", but someone around here needs to do it. ;)

I did buy a Flower Horn when they first appeared on the market thinking it was Trimac, not realizing it was a hybrid. So people can buy hybrids w/o realizing it.
