Fooling around with Exotic Fish

Creating a monstrosity

TATTOOED FISH?

Steve's Wonderfish  World of Pets in Williamsville, NY is selling Tattooed fish from Singapore. Steve Lane said "My hope is if it gets more people into the hobby it's a good thing. If a kid comes in and sees a fish with a heart on it and says I want a fish tank and learns how to care for it, I think it's a win," I totally disagree with the ethics of this store and reasoning. TARGETING children to buy monstrosities and the selling of animals marked for life, is wrong. To read the story from WGRZ.com click HERE.

I sincerely hope that anyone that reads this will not buy those fish from that store or any other store that sells them. This is my opinion and suggestion. - Frank Magallanes, OPEFE.
