Fish Crazy
Most of my LFS stopped carrying Gynothorax tile a while back and most places no longer have brackish sections. They only have a few very small low end brackish fish. Are people going to stop keeping brackish fish because of the economy or is it that the novelty has worn off? I know where to get my own fish myself so I should be ok. I wonder what everyone else is supposed to do. A lot of the fish I can get are quite difficult fish to keep.
Also is it cruel to keep an American Eel in a spherical 50 gallon tank with only decorative glass pebbles. This was what I found when I went to a certain "theme park" with a sea monster ride. The glass pebbles look like the ones that go into vases. They are like pancake shaped marbles. The tanks are barren and the eels are like 2ft long! They frantically pace around. They probably have to replace them weekly. Just how well could this setup work? Is it as cruel as I think?
