For your information, @FishandBirdLover and her family are moving to an entirely different country. She CAN NOT take the fish with her, it is impossible. They are leaving in less than a month. She is already having a hard enough time, you don't need to make it worse. She knows she has put in time and effort and she LOVES and cares deeply about her animals. She doesn't need reminders.I'm sorry if I'm out of line but that just SO wrong on multiple levels. It just seems wrong to me to supply you a tank that you put in a lot of time and effort to build and then just tell you to let it go.
While much beyond the level of yours it reminds me of when I was ~13 and breeding fancy guppy's and actually selling. Not saying this has any relation to your situation but my father had severe issues. He was jealous that I was succeeding with something and dumped lye in the tank to kill the fish.
To me it is just wrong to take away your tank. If the tank was given to you your dad's friend has no claim to take it back.
Again, sorry if I'm out of line but this is just wrong to me.
Just because your dad was a psycho (sorry if that is offensive but that is completely insane to kill your fish and I am So sorry for that ) doesn't mean hers is. He is a very nice man (not a jerk), and is trying to get everything ready for the very fast-approaching move. He would never make her give up her pets but in this situation it is unavoidable. They are leaving- so they mind as well get everything in order now.
Also, her "dad's friend" is actually her friend. Me. @FishandBirdLover is moving and never will be using it again, and I gave it to her, so she is giving it back. She ASKED if I would like my stuff back I gave her. I laid no "claim" on it as you've called it. It was my great great aunt's and my parents so It means a lot to me and I would very much like it back.
