OK, who gave my betta a cigarette...
Cigarette smoke, paint fumes, and aerosol sprays

Fish communicate with one another through a range of low-frequency sounds—from buzzes and clicks to yelps and sobs...

no wonder my reds and pork chops were crying...Baby(betta) had a cigarette:eek: ...and as far as the paint and aerosol sprays...Dork (blue gourami) was painting his new house he just built..and the penguins were getting ready for prom.....



(You have got to be kidding, what will PETA come with next:mad2: ....)
 
While captive fish can never live natural lives
Lol, wow uhh how come clownfish live in our anemones and spawn and play and stuff? Seems like a pretty natural life, in the reef they very rarely leave there anemone so they dont do much aside from mate etc.... Happened many times.

A properly working air pump is necessary to provide oxygen
What? Uhh i dont have an airpump in my tank, all i got is a filter and plants, oh shucks my fish are dead now...

The natural waste of fish emits ammonia, which can accumulate to toxic levels, so clean the tank regularly, but never empty the tank completely. Be sure to clean the glass well with a pad or a brush to prevent algae growth.
Ever heard of Bacteria?

If a fish seems sick or lethargic, take him or her to a vet.
There is such thing as forums, google, and a camera.... The trip to the vets office will probably be more harmful than the disease itself.

But really, we have to give them credit for trying, there are many abusive fish keepers out there.
 
peta is silly.

They all want to liberate animals, meaning everything is free and in the wild.

Remember a while back when those peta ppl where killing all those cats and dogs? I found that convicted chicks myspace :lol:

12 Monkeys anyone?
 
Great reception this article has recieved... I can use it as a sieve it's had so many holes punched in it.
 
That's it, Im going to drop in some hammer and nails and watch my fish build a house from the driftwood.

*snort* thanks fballguy I like blowing coffee out my nose at work.

one of mine has started circulating political literature.

he's pledging to maintain the ammonia/nitrite moratorium, continue restrict nitrates to a reasonable level and increase feeding to one million times a day
 
So fish use tools, huh? I have a tank in my office here at work. Now I finally know how the paradise fish was able to make that "UNION NOW!" sign that he used to lead the corys in a march on the driftwood. The shrimp have been rioting ever since. Labour disputes are so intense. The white clouds want nothing to do with it, so they just carry on like usual, those picket-line crossing scabs.
 
was it hot coffee?
 
PeTA are a bunch of morons. It's like a cult. Seriously, watch out for people who have a "cause". They're the most dangerous people on earth.

And let's not forget the extremists in Germany who wanted that cute little polar bear cub killed (because it's mother rejected it, so in nature it would have died).

I'm all for animal right and protection and everything, but they're crazy.

I mean, what's a vet going to do for a sick platy? Put it in ICU?!?!
