PLEASE READ about the constant killing of marine life
Hello all. After looking at all of todays threads, as I do most everyday. I came across one that struck a nerve in me. It is the same old story of a LFS killing marine life. Well this isn't a LFS but a NFS, a national fish store, Petco. We've all witnessed the horrible living conditions that they keep marine animals in, so I decided to start a petition. Whether it will go anywhere, we'll see. The thread I read was this one that got me all p****off. http://reefcentral.com/forums/showt...hreadid=1372614
I don't see the difference between the actions of Petco and what Michael Vick did to those poor dogs. Unfortunately the general public don't consider marine animals as they would a dog or cat. Here's the written petition that I ask you read and sign and forward to all that care. I will forward this information to Petco directly, PETA, and all other authorities that pertain to the problem. I ask also ask that you take pictures and give the location of where these killings persist. Please continue to post your experiences and comments on this thread so that it will almost be as if was a "sticky" My e-mail is [email protected]. The link to the petition is below and again share it with those who care. Regards, Tim

I often wonder how their marine department can be viable. Apart from the standard clownfish and damsels (which I still wouldn't trust buying there), they have absolutely no control on the stock they get. I've seen tons of strange fish at Petco that would be impossible to sell to most people (the one I can remember was a baby grouper that grows, I think, to a maximum of 20+").
