Did you complain or ask about the fish?
Can't judge straight away, but it doesn't sound too good to me.

"Tasha under cover " sounds like a title for a new police drama!


Tasha i have seen a shop close to me that their discus fish are paper thin and black! not good and they still want £33 each for them !

What will they do if i complain to them .............nothing im sure !

tomorow i may ask about them ..........say im thinking of keeping som and what can they tell me about their fish and conditions etc

perhaps we shoud set up a thread and name and shame the shops! like a customer complaint log for people to view? just a thought !

the same shops parrots looked prety healthy though .

if the shop is as bad as you say,you can report it to the local council,they're the ones that issue the license to the pet shop enabling them to sell animals, or the rspca...but 1st id go in + in a freindly way just mention "cor blimey governor,those fish dont look too healthy" + give the owners a chance to respond,it maybe that they came in like that + are in quarentine?chances are they're not, but you never know
