Cool * Dyed/Recolored Fish *

Several species of Freshwater Fish are recolored or dyed in cruel and inhumane ways before sale. There is widespread controversy over this abusive process. Many many fish are killed in the process and still others die because of weakened immune systems.

Do you feel that SereneScreen Freshwater Aquarium should or should not have the following species (and others) in re-colored form?
  • Painted Glass Fish
  • Colored Skirts (Blue, Red, Purple, etc.)
  • Painted Tiger and Tinfoil Barbs
  • Gold Bala Shark
  • Blood Parrot Cichlid

This really breaks down to, do you feel it would be condoning such practices? Would it encourage or discourage people from buying these fish?

More information on this practice can be found HERE.
