View Full Version : What will you do if the fries are not up to standard
I have been reading some threads from the brothers in arofanatics about their fries. Noticed that not all fries will turn out to be potential.
What will you do with those that are not potential? I understand that some will give away and some will choose not to. The ones that will not give away, what will you do then? It will be expensive as well as space cpnstraint to store them?
Is it right to give away not quality fries ? Will that upset some of the brothers who are trying to sell theirs?

dont think it'll upset brothers who is tryig to sell fish. Good quality fish of course can sell for a price, but lower grade fish why not give away IF got someone like them?
Anyway, I think this is up to personal preference. For my case, I'll trade the better one for out cross, and give away those low grades one if someone likes them. else feed aro.

hmm.. it seem cruel to use bettas as feeders. This is because we are the ones that initiate the breeding projects and we are the one that terminate them. Sound cruel isn't it? Do you think give to LFS for free, will they accept? or how about releasing them to the wild. I know that releasing Lorhan is illegal as it upset the eco system , not too sure about bettas as it won't upset the eco system but instead it may help by control the mosquitoes

If release to the wild, tat will serve free meals for the big fishes. It is same like culling :D

cool.. i will try it.. but if they die inside bu shi all the water cant use le?
release to the wild and eaten by big fishes seem culling too.
Yes agreed. Same as eating chicken, you don't see how it is killed, so you eat. But the moment you killed the chicken by youself, you lose appetite to eat.

my favourite topic cuz will have a lot of different views and discussion... ok here i am ... i seriously am one of those that dun or seldom give away.. i give when i dun want the line or wat... those that dun meet the requirement such as in finnage or gill problem, defects.. i will cull them by feeding them to my ST and aros... but mos tof the time is to my ST... some pple can say is cruel..but then again.. other pple also feed goldfish y never say cruel? different pple have different thinking ar.....
about giving away... there is no right or wrong... whether is quality or no quality.. seldom will see pple give quality fishes... but always giving it away to pple... then pple will have the tendency to always keep taking free fishes.. some pple can say i am selfish la.. but giving fishes away.. is like an insult to the fishes... i dun know how pple think but i feel like this la... giving free to me is when i dun want play liao :D
and those thinking to release to the wild.. better not try... they die even more jialat... and u will get caught one ar :p
anyway watever it is.. hope everyone enjoy the hobby.. that is the most important.. harmony and peace...

For me,i will keep all the unwanted females in a comm tank and those unwanted males i will try to jar them up if spaces permits,else will try to sell off,or give away.
Release to the wild will jus as good as flush them from the toilet bowl.They wont survive out in the wild,most probebly will die from starvation and disease.

Flushing is one of the worst ways to cull fishes. There are more humane ways to go about getting rid of unwanted fries. :)

Oh this topic used to be my favourite and I was almost culled during those discussions.
Now if any guy asks me this question, my answer is :
If you follow your heart, the fish will be safe.
If you follow your brain, the fish will need to say good bye.
Do what you think and feel is comfortable.
