Saw these fish in a local shop. I am disgusted. The woman in the shop said they were black widows. She also said the owner said anesthesia was used and it isnt cruel. I beg to differ

The owner is going to be in the shop this weekend. Obviously I shall not be buying from his shop again. The thing is I know his shop is up for sale and I have heard through the grapevine that he has been told to leave by the garden center that his shop is in. This is apparently going to happen in two weeks time. So I am guessing he thinks he has nothing to lose by selling them. A new bloke is going to have a fish shop there who I know is a good guy and doesnt sell tattooed fish

They are for sale at £10 each

The shop is called Aqua pets. The shop in is Hillier garden center at leighton buzzard road, hemel hempstead. Tel 01442 253005 if anyone fancies calling to complain

I have decided that this is such an important topic that many people would want to discuss, it merits having its own forum

I agree that a separate topic is needed. I wasnt sure where to post this thread. When you have set it up please could you move this thread into it please

didn't notice the photos before, that is just sick

That's pretty twisted.

OFL you didnt notice the photos before because they were not there. I tried to put the photos in the post but couldnt size them small enough so went to photo bucket to do it and edited the post
