How genetics make colours

Is fish keeping a healthy hobby, it's not like you get extra exercise, and does it lower stress?

With the publication of the RSPCA report, the shape of suffering, I thought I'd look over the report and give you my thoughts. Then I had to reduce the volume because I'd got so worked up. Can you spot where I editted out the swearwords? Oh and when I refer to parrots, or parrot cichlids, I mean Blood Parrots. Fish are bred to very few standards for the most, and little concern about their short or long term welfare. I feel that this needs to change, and the best way is through our wallets. https://www.rspca.org.uk/documents/d/rspca/ec-report

A weird ramble through my overheated thoughts.

Join me to answer some questions taken from our social media groups.

I'm joined by special guest John Chitty to discuss the upcoming changes to how we classify fish, and what that means for the care we need to give them. What are your thoughts on taking your fish to the vet? Can you see any issues? Contact me at [email protected] or on social media.
