Jaide Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 just saw them advertised on TM - they look rather small.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cichlid7 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 he has 6 guppy's in one look at his other listings :evil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsmith Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 ...but....that's not nice! The fish in the pic look like barbs or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianab Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 One of the worst fish killing devices I've ever seen. The advertising pics shows THREE tiger barbs, in 0.6l of water. Mods: can you allow the link to Trademe to remain as this is another thing like the I-Tank that needs to be stopped. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon1990 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 I dont think they are tiger barbs... But pretty much the same as far as space requirements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jolliolli Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 i think it would be a good idea to to report the listing to trademe on animal cruelty grounds, would have more of an impact if multiple ppl report the listings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu :) Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 I think the fish in that listing are Ruby Barbs. i think it would be a good idea to to report the listing to trademe on animal cruelty grounds, would have more of an impact if multiple ppl report the listings Here here, but how? I can't find the animal cruelty bit in TMs 'terms & conditions' and/or 'code of conduct'... even the mention of Nazi memorabilia has gone west since I last read it...

Jaide Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 To report the listing, click on "report this listing" in the auction, choose any of the reasons why (it doesn't really matter which category as you can explain the reason in the "Details" field Breaching TM's terms and conditions seems the most fitting though. It's a shame these tank fads are coming to NZ - have recently heard of Peace Lilly vases which are not available here, thank god! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diver21 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 it is used as a fish bowl with a plant. they say that the fish will survive buy eating the roots so you dont have to feed it and that you dont need to change the water. http://www.petfish.net/articles/Bettas/lillybetta.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
