Maybe these police should check out their local SPCA and recalculate the inhumane size to enclosure ratio.
Its not like we flush them when we they outgrow their home anyways....

I agree its better then the store but please keep in mind when they get bigger they will need a rehome or they wont live a full and long life no matter how much TLC is offered. I just offered up the angle as another solution. I played with fire with a matted filefish and it worked for about a week, then i got burnt. After destroying half my zoas, acan and brain coral i got him out. Watch them closely as it doesnt take a fish long to do some serious damage.
