Well I'm ashamed to say I laughed reading about the laid back fish but it is tragic! This will devastate water systems.

My hubby heard that in Brisbane they want to treat sewerage and send it to the Lockyer Valley to be used on all the small crop farms. Only problem is that the antibiotics levels are too high even in the treated sewerage. I mean how many people are taking antibiotics for so much to be present in the effluent?

Hey gg, maybe this prozac water would be useful when we want to transport fish - Stress Free Fish Transportation :)

Hey, don't laugh Miskairal,

One of the former members here, finally gave up on purchasing any fish from a LFS.

She excitedly placed her first, rather expensive, order for new guppys online.

When the fish arrived they appeared to be ill, and she called the company immediately.

They told her they are fine and would "perk up" once the mild anesthesia worked it's way out of their systems.

BOOO-HISSS!!!

Did they perk up? Well if it means the fish has a better chance at survival and it's only a one off then I don't really have a problem with it.

Hmm, thinking, thinking....
I have over 200 goats to truck on a 4 hour journey soon - where is that Prozac water exactly ;)
