"Activists want fish off aquarium menu"

Thought that it was worth reading and might as well pass it on. Has anyone ever heard of the "Fish Empathy Project for People for the Ethical Treament of Animals"? The FEPPETA?

Well surely they're only serving freshwater fish ... we all know they're not as smart.



Well.... come to think of it ... my table is in the same room as my tank and I do feel a little weird eating fish in front of them.

Too funny!

Poodleburgers. Guess I've been missing out.

Yuck!

We should start a counter picketing campaign emphasizing the health care savings and health benefits of eating a diet high in fish... Let PETA try to take that on . Fish eating cultures have the highest life expectancy in the world - Japan - highest in the world period, Hawaii highest in the US.
