Judging by the average Yahoo answers member I can't say I'm surprised-

I know - I shouldn't be surprised either

But that's the worst I've seen - even on Y! Answers.

Re: Some people just don't deserve their fish #6

I saw the question too. I advised him to give the fish to a proper fishkeeper, give the tank to me and then buy a fishtank screensaver. lol.

Hi Peeps. I still have plenty of Assassin Snails for sale to help control pest snails that creep in on your plants. PM me for details

Re: Some people just don't deserve their fish #8

Hillstream - which Answerer are you?

Or did you contact the Asker direct?

He'd probably find a way to abuse the screensaver

Totally agree with you gw. People like him just shouldn't have pets. Fortunately, it looks like most of the Answerers agree.

Re: Some people just don't deserve their fish #10

It's OK Hillstream - I found you

GN: You're not talking about my Answer, are you?

I agree he shouldn't have fish - just trying to do the best for the fish he does have.

I should have said that in my answer.
