Dyed anemone's are a whole other matter though, isn't their death rate almost 100% when dyed?


BTW Lord Nikon, Here's a quote for you:

" What the hell are you guys doing?"

" Putting on the foil" "Yeah, we do it before every game, want some?"



"Old time hockey, like Eddie Shore"

Dang, I got to watch that movie again!

But the best in that one is "She's a L(censored)! She's a L(censored)"

deathbydyeing is all about painted fw fish like chanda ranga (the original glass fish), painted albino rainbow sharks,'fruit loop' tetra's, 'jellybean parrots' etc, which have been around at least a decade or two

axelrod gave a very detailed account of how the operations are run, complete w/pictures, yrs ago, in tfh magazine

I did not make this, I don't know who did. I would make my own but a friend gave me his PS7 CD after he got CS. Well I lost the CD before I installed it, and I have Fireworks but I don't know how to use it. But those stats are a bit off. They should say UP to 80% died. I can dig through google again and find were these stats are. And if you buy dyed fish your a idiot because the dye will fade in a few months. No I'm not some PETA hippie. I LOVE TO EAT MEAT!!!!!! I don't know about the 97% thing, but I would say its more about 80% Some fish you can't really tell. Beside its cruel, some methods do not use needles, some are dipped in a caustic solution to remove their slime coat, then they are dipped in a dye and then dipped in a solution that irritates their skin to produce a slime coat.

where do you have proof of this?

all you;ve given me are anecdotal links, w/repeated 2nd hand misinformation



SHOW ME AN ARTICLE THAT PROVES THAT 90% OF ALL JELLY BEAN PARROTS DIE BEFORE THEY LOSE THEIR COLORING! (as stated from your links)

SHOW ME AN ARTICLE W/PICTURES OF YOUR CAUSTIC BATH!!!! (as stated from the above links)


SHOW ME ANY STUDY THAT DEMONSTRATES ANY INVESTIGATION INTO THE LIFE SPAN OF DYED VS. NON DYED FISH !!(as implied from the above)

i've sold and cared for, from the moment of arrival to the airport from the growers/exporters, to the moment of sale, and longer, thousands upon thousands of dyed and non dyed 'flavors' of all of the species that are dyed in the trade

they('painteds') are absolutely and unequivocably every bit as healthy, or sensitive, as their 'regular' counterparts

i've seen tens of cutomers w/jellybean parrots that have spawned repeatedly


do you know what a jellybean parrot is? :wink:

how many hundreds of any of those species have you, or any of the authors of those links. either sold or cared for, long term, or short term ?


you might want to look into joining peta :wink:

'
spreading sensationalist 'bubbehmeises' all over the internet about this hobby based on 2nd hand rantings and ravings of lunatics does the hobby nothing but a disservice,and all because of a group of misinformed people who need a cause wagon to jump onto

one last addendum while i can stop laughing long enough......


do you know what 'caustic' means ?

i highly doubt any fish could survive for more than a few seconds in anything that would be described as even mildly caustic ! (for the most part, you or i wouldn't last too long, either :wink: )

where did all those painted fish from the caustic baths come from ? was their flesh re-attached to them as well ?

please don't take any of this as a personal attack, it's your methods of , and beliefs about,spreading misinformation i'm attacking, not you as a person

:)

Seriously vitz, cut it out. If you really want to discuss this tangent issue, start a thread in the FW forum.

Anyone have some valium, it seems to be getting too tense in this thread man! I just need a tab or two. Oh yah man! That hit the spot.

All I can say is there can be an argument made for both sides. The best advice is if you believe "painting" fish is evil, don't buy them. If you don't, brighten up your tank with those babies.

Hey Vitz, what's wrong with PETA? Who can hold a grudge against any group that promotes the replacement of animal "cruelty" with naked women :D

Sorry, I have been a little sensitive after my friend of 6 years nearly died of alcohol poisoning(as well as being well below the legal age limit) then started smoking pot. I did some yelling and we have not talked in months. I have even been shunned and banned from forums just for my feelings twards France.

I know a really good psychologist... I wouldn't be airing out your laundry to these guys. :P
