tbh i didnt no they were dyed i think what they go thru is cruel and i did talk to the lady about this but she wasnt 100% sure they were dyed but every1 is entitled to there own opinion
19-09-2007
17:35 by Woz
whats your opinion on it then apart from being cruel?
19-09-2007
17:37 by tasha
well i fink its as bad as beatin a dog they must go through alot of stress and it probly angers u that i bought theese fish but i rather there be in a healthy enviroment then not
19-09-2007
18:30 by robert.pope
with you buying the fish from the little shop tasha shows that there is a demand for these fish! if everyone stoped buying dyed fish then the shops would soon stop ordering them !


i have read on PFK website that the old glass fish is hard to find in shops now that its not being dyed
19-09-2007

19:52 by robert.pope
i dont think we are going to convince our Tasha on this one
19-09-2007
19:54 by robert.pope
Tasha what ever happend to the baby Neon fish???? follow up please
19-09-2007
19:59 by Fry Lover
Dont worry Tasha, just give the fish the best home you can and concentrate on that, if you want to worry about the bigger picture of dyed fish then you can choose to..... or choose not to..... up to you.......

People can only encourage you to consider the bigger picture and leave you to make your choice about it.

Perhaps someone would like to start a new thread on the ethics of dyed fish? It would be educational i am sure.

Tasha, that Calico Convict is beautiful in your tank, is it the only convict? hopefully yes, if you keeping a community!

I normally dont like coloured gravel, but i think your tank looks nice, how big is it?

19-09-2007
19:59 by tasha
haha the baby neon turned out to be a zebra fish lmao
19-09-2007
20:01 by tasha
huh whats a Calico Convict ?lol x
19-09-2007
20:14 by Fry Lover
4th pic down in the bottom right corner, the cichlid

what do you think that fish is?

i think it might be a Convict Cichlid, although going by the body shape it could also be some kind of a Convict / Parrot Cross, see these links

Calico Convict

Dwarf Jellybean
http://www.aquariumfish.net/images_01/dwarf_jellybean_convict_w090.jpg


If your "convict" ends up staying that small size and shape its possible a mixture of parrot and convict, i have some of them, but they are not "calico", which is the reference to the colouring

How big is it now and when you bought it what did the LFS say it was?

It might just a normal Calico Convict, but its the shape is kinda suggesting its could be a hybrid i think
19-09-2007
20:18 by tasha

19-09-2007
21:54 by Fry Lover
nice video

sooner or later the Convicts might get a bit cheeky with the more peaceful fish in there, although you might get lucky, sometimes when fry grow up ina certain environment they fit in better, but you cant take the Convict out of the Convict

I like the colouring on some of them Tasha, how many you got in total? are you looking sell some? anything else for sale?
19-09-2007
