not sure about all of the fish on that site i have 4 parrot fish i bought them in different colors and they have faded but i had them for years they seem like hardy fish i am planning on getting more but thanks for the list

Okay, Thanks for your info.

---

ok cool thanks 4 the heads up

---

Yeah tell me about it! i got 10 of them not only did they die but all my other fish died also! i had the Painted Glassfish

---

OMG! i know. they get diseases so fast. Its inhumane. I almost got painted glass fish, but i got a glass catfish instead. Then i found out about how they were injected, and it was so sad.

This is MY 2 cents on this;

i think itis pretty dang dumb to buy 'decorator' or fad animals, whether they are genetically engineered, cross-bred for fancy colors and patterns, 'painted' or dyed, etc.

This is so arrogant of us to force OUR aesthetic on other animals that I am sometimes ashamed of our species.

Breeding dogs for certain cosmetic characteristics- and ignoring the horrible debilitating problems the reinforced bad genes cause is shameful.

Cross-breeding snakes for pretty patterns is, in my opinion, dumb. If you like snakes, what is wrong with the original patterns?

Dyed fish are just another example of our arrogance. The natural animals are not good enough for us, so we screw around with them and shorten their lifespan so they better match the couch?

Yeesh.

THATS SO #%$&ING CRUEL AND INHUMANE! i promise i will never buy dose fishes!! thats so sad!!

Thanks for your warning. I will look into in.

dyed fish are not natural, thanks for sharing.

I share your point of view on dyed fish. it really is sad that people would do that.

to me it is disturbing that some magezines are publishing "how to" guides on his to do this kind of thing to your fish http://www.practicalfishkeeping.co.uk/pf.
