My local Petsmart has a bulletin board where, if you get permission, you can post sometihng. I could type up some information on dyed fish and how cruel it is, and ask to post it. I always see people looking at it when I go, so if I posted, I'm sure people would read it.

I make little stickers that I stick on the tanks at our dumbest LFS when no-one is looking

"This fish can grow to four feet long" (On an MBU tank)

"These fish have been dipped in coloured dyes" (On dyed parrot tanks)

"This fish will kill and eat other fish" (On a Dragon Puffer tank)

"The fish in this tank are suffering from a fungal disease" (on a tank full of white furry clown loach)

The stickers usually last about a week before the boss notices and has them removed.

WHAT A FANTASTIC IDEA!

Yep, I agree, its an excellent idea!

Someone post a template - and this really needs to be pinned, to stop it going away and getting buried!

Sounds like a great idea. Only I won't be championing PetSmart. they got into big trouble here in the Uk for gross mistreatment of their animals. I used to go into their stores and there'd be dead fish in their tanks and the animals they were selling were too young.

LOL.. love the idea about the stickers SirMinion

We should all do that!!

What do you mean post a template?

If you've got MS Word and a pack of Avery labels it's REALLY EASY to create labels. If you want to know how, PM me and I'll e-mail instructions.

 

[Puffer_freak]

Yeah cool, I'll PM you now!

What I mean by a template is a basic structure to follow, like this fish is dyed etc. but with different methods to make it more effective. They could all be saying basiccally the same message, but just written down in a slightly different way.

Like some could say.

This fish is died.

If you don't buy this fish, you will be saving over 1000 of the same.

Just things like that, they get to people, if we're going to do leaflets, with them we could give away stickers with them!

Just an idea!

Bumpereee! Can't have this getting lost.

Don't mean to burst your bubble, but if you look at the dates of the previous posts you'll see that this thread is several years old.
