Posted	Gold fish ban
13-09-2007 16:41 by perky	Do you think that gold fish prizes on fair grounds should be banned...? If so vote here for that ban. http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Fishprize/

13-09-2007 18:59 by WAYNE	NO WHAT ELSE ARE THEY GOING TO GIVE AWAY? HAMSTERS
13-09-2007 19:16 by Woz	perky with a serious thread, whats the world coming too
13-09-2007 19:18 by mwilde	If it wasnt for a gold fish at a fair i would never have got into fish keeping. I told my wife i needed a 300 litre tank to upgrade from the fish bowl that we bought with the gold fish from the fair that my daughter won.
13-09-2007 19:28 by Woz	good of you to do that mwilde but how many others think that way?
13-09-2007 19:39 by robert.pope	the poor things stay in little bags some times all day in bright sunshine.........ban them as prizes and shoot the fairground workers! money grabbing lot
13-09-2007 19:53 by telboy	not ideal granted,BUT i must stick up for the BARNET FAYER,the goldfish are kept in very lge filtered airated cooled koi vats, with rspca visits daily...in fact i won 2 + they outlived any fish ive bought from lfs
13-09-2007 20:42 by silverstreem	I dont think that some fg,s should be able to keep them. BUT a few Pets at Home stores have worse conditions and treatments so they should be sorted 2
14-09-2007 09:32 by D.R.	Likewise, that's how I first started out as a junior fishkeeper. The activity should be regulated, stall holders licensed (as for lfs) Attracting kids to take live fish on a whim will always be controversal. If anything children trying to compete for the prize of a goldfish should at least be in the company of an adult. The humble goldfish is the most popular pet in Britain...FACT! if anything we should have a ban for the humble goldfish bowl. I think PFK magazine had a feature on banning goldfish bowls and dyed fish a few years back.
14-09-2007 13:13 by perky	PFK have put this in there website. http://www.practicalfishkeeping.co.uk/pfk/pages/blog.php?blogid=119
14-09-2007 22:17 by Woz	they still support a banning of dyed fish i know
14-09-2007 22:18 by Fry Lover	how about a Perky ban? be quicker, easier and more chance of accomplishing
14-09-2007 22:31 by Woz	hes already had one ban for undisclosed reasons

15-09-2007 20:14 by robert.pope	nice one jake!:o i think it was a forum for banning them as prizes at fairgrounds ......
