Animal cruelty :(

[laughing]

Ya I think 3-4 have died?? And my teacher doesn't want (or even like) fish and keeps saying no. The first batch was 2 comets, then one died b/c the other ate all of its food, and she said NO MORE. Girls went to the store, brought some in for her, and she said NO. And then the girl started shaking the bag trying to kill it!! WTF?! So that's why my teacher accepted them. I don't know the story behind accepting the 3rd batch though.

Eurghh... was it children shaking the bag? Sorry, not really up with the story...

[laughing]

Classmates. I'm part time high school full time college student. Girl must've been 15. It really pissed me off when I heard that. Like really, you'll violently shake the bag to "kill" the fish just so someone will take it? Just take it back to the freakin' store.

Not all stores take em back...my lfs does though...

I find most pet stores do take fish back, or your local aquarium. Or simply find a neighbour with a pond and ask if they want it.
