Glofish

by the picture that they shopw in that article, they look pretty cool to me. I like the way they are so vibrant. I would love to have a few of those. But i am with aquariumfishguy that they shouldnt sell fish that are so mutated that they cant function properly.
 
Im amazed no one has become mad because of these fish. Most people on here despise painted and green glow fish because their genetically altered. I would like to own some but i dont like the pink color alot.. blue or yellow would be great!:D
 
It will just increase the present black market fish industry. Thousands of Califronians will have them soon. Drugs are prohibited too, but one out of two people have smoked pot.
 
"one out of two people have smoked pot."

...where'd you get that statistic from?

If you dont mind breaking the law then by all means go ahead but for future reference I wouldn't let the whole world know my business. They usually have animals illegal in certain states for a reason but if you think you "need" this fish than thats fine too. Good luck...
 
Actually, I do not think owning a GloFish in California is illegal, just the sale of GloFish. So technically justapixel and other Californians would not being doing anything illegal by buying these fish in a neighboring state and breeding them (as long as the offspring was given away, not sold). Whether this is moral/ethical is another story, but I do not think it is such a big deal.
