What A Blatant Disregard For Life

How not to do it

Found this on ebay UK

 

[jimw13uk]

hes closed the auction now though - I was watching it and was going to get it just to save the fish

 

[nathan01]

Those fish must be really upset

Three very beautiful triggers as well. Would be beautiful in a huge tank

 

[black molly3]

beautiful triggers i was thinking on getting on in the future when i get more experienced in keeping SW but i havent no room for a 50 gal tank.
when i get a bit beter i may change my 14 gal tropical into marine but thats about as far as i will go.
hmmmm i might get a yellow tang haha only messin
will a two tone royal gramma be ok with a gobie and a shrimp

Jeez, there isn't even any live rock.... poor animals.

What you may not manage to see is that there are actually 3 Trigs in that tank

Rhinecanthus Aculeatus - Picasso
Balistoides Conspicillum- Clown
Odonus Niger - Niger

That is depressing

 

[black molly3]

could i ask what is the minimums sized tank for a trigger and are they hard to look after

 

[callell]

Personally I would have at least a 70 UK g for the Picasso & Niger

The Clown I would go to the 100g mark

For the record that tank Pictured above is a 30 UK Litre's

I have more water in a cup of Coffee than there is in that tank

Agreed.

Those poor fish.

shameful

If you still have the link to the auction then I would report the ebayer in question and if you know his username I suggest you contact him and explain why it is cruel and try and educate him and persuade him to take the fish to his LFS or give them to someone with a BIG tank!

Looks very dubious though, almost photoshopped...

i dont think theyve been in there for long. Maybe he picked up on the fact people will buy things if they think an animal or animals are at risk.

 

[enjoiskater158]

mabye, but if thats the case he should have just photoshoped them into the tank. Also if anyone is willing to put an animal at risk, just to sell something, they need to be put in jail

Agreed. Unfortunately, the fact that nearly everyone on Earth is willing is, sadly, what has led to our home planet being in the awful state that it is.
