mmkay...
while i can take constructive critism and i am all for opinions and experiences...(and i am not taking anything personally, nor do i feel attacked
)but,
i can totally understand your views on the taking pics of the fish in the net, but do you really think that that caused undue stress on the fish?
being in the net an extra 20 seconds.
for 1 thing, i took pics of only 1 fish in the net, yet the other fish died first.
whats up with that?
perhaps from now on, after the fish is acclimated, i should (and when i say i should, i really mean we all should)use a container and scoop the fish out of the acclimating pail, submerge that into the tank and release it, as to avoid anymore air contact than necessary, is that what everyone should be doing?
while i can appreciate the point that is trying to be made, there is a point where things are a tad extreme, perhaps i am overreacting, or perhaps it is others who are overreacting.
now, i do not profess myself to be a fishkeeping guru, but i do feel quite confident with my experience, having said that, the next time i introduce a new fish to my system, i will take your concerns into consideration.
