Glow Fish

I went to one of the chains in our town today and saw "Glow Fish" with a
trade mark cymble. The label went on to say engineered to glow in the dark,
works better with a UV light, ect. What is that all about????
And I felt bad about Blood Parrots.

They could be painted with a dye....

I checked out these pages and all I can say is . . . but I won't
because we've been seeing enough bad language in the fish groups
lately.

This isn't dyeing or tattooing and it causes the fish no pain or
suffering. I think celestial bubble eyed goldfish have it a lot worse. ;-)

=========================
I have a pair of celestials and they seem to be blind. They do get around
their tank fine and know when the food is dropped in. I keep them with a
few platies that they compete with very well. I personally don't think it's
such a great idea breeding fish so far from the norm, but these don't seem
to be that negatively effected by the eye deformity.

I agree with you 100% I don't know if you remember the bubble eye goldfish I
seen at petsmart who's bubble was popped, it was having a hard time swimming
and it does not grow back so he will have problems until he gets used to it
I guess. another thing breeders are doing is breeding different fish
together there are some cichlids that are breed from two other fish and
don't do well or live quite as long as others.

Hi..

I checked out these pages and all I can say is . . .

Right, this is no nocturnal fish. Why should it glow or be
kept in the dark?

but I
won't because we've been seeing enough bad language in the
fish groups lately.
