Injecting Dye Into Fish Options

[isntkarmagreat]

Has anyone ever heard of this absolutely horrific practice? I was reading an article in a fishkeeping magazine from Singapore and they were describing how to do it and were even selling a kit. They are also cutting the tails off of certain Cichlid varieties to make tham more visually appealing. In America people are really making a push to ban these horrific looking fish from coming over to our shops,and to also ban them internationally as well. Europe is also making a push.I am going to Malaysia next month and if I ever see anyone doing it I will probably take that needle and jam it in their eye repeatedly and risk the consequences.There are beautiful fish coming out of Asia,especially their goldfish, but is this considered acceptable and a common practice in Asia?? I hope not. Heres the link to the article.
