oohhhh YUK!!

they are sooo cute without the horrible dye, so why bother!!

gggrrrhhh!!

 

[tropical_adam]

They sell these in a lfs here in the uk. I recently bought a cory that has a slight blueish colouring in the same place that these have the pink bit.
This is natural though isn't it?

I'm sorry to say that I dont think it is no...!

they look like dyed albino corys, someon correct me itf I'm wrong, but I have never seen one nor am I able to find anyinformation on them!

Im thinking to list those stores on my homapages, which sell dyed fishes. So, if you know any, please send me pm.

Key idea is trying to get people not to buy from those stores.. They can try to sue me, I don't care We have here freedom of speech and propably our judicial system only laught at charges... (Even one jugde said once "We are not in USA"...)

I went to the link, and atleast there weren't any bids yet on them.

Poor cories....

 

[Lithril]

K thats wrong on entirely too many levels.

 

[mrOverstocknewbie]

I for one am taking note of this seller & making sure Not buy Any fish from them.

This pretty much makes the arguments of proponents of these acts "If you don't like it don't buy it" become more hollow and even more idiotic.

Like I said with hybrids, in just a few years real fish won't be available anymore.

Dang people can't leave well enough alone Poor fish.

I have seen these in one of the best shops in Ireland, and I made sure to tell the owner exactly why I wont buy fish from them anymore. I also asked in a loud voice in the shop (packed with saturday shoppers!) if they injected the dye themselves. I would never of course suggest anyone here should do the same....

It really is a shame and of course the only way to make it stop is for people to stop buying the fish.

However, I really believe that the number of people that go out and buy fish with no knowledge of fish what-so-ever is far greater than the type of people we have here in this forum. Knowledge is the key........

MrV......here's one for your website - "Fish R Fun" fish store in Houston Texas sells painted glass fish as well as dyed kissing gouramis.

 

[mrV]

"Fish R Fun", have they homepages?

I'll start to keep the list during christmas (and of course the list is in english (too)).

 

[mike777]
