End Tropical Fish Cruelty

[skys]

Animal cruelty comes in many forms. One type that many people are unaware of is the “painting” of fish commonly practiced now. We strongly encourage consumers to purchase only naturally coloured fish and to request that pet stores in your area not carry dyed fish. We are also requesting that you boycott any stores that continue to stock dyed fish after you bring this horrible practice to their attention.

Always wondered how they painted fish.

So what is everyones opinion on the GLOFISH?(Red Zebra Danio)
They say it isn't paint or dye it was done with DNA.
Prsonaly I think it looks cool IF it is DNA and didn't hurt the fish.

I really think you should do a forum search on that, oscarbreeder. There's at least 6 topics about it in the FW forum, and all 6 go on for like, 4-8 pages.
