Description
Shops in the "Goldfish Street" in Kowloon, Hong Kong, sell lots of fishes. Some were sold out of a fish tank, some got only plastic bags

I went there in December, and I was so very tempted to just put them all into fish tanks.. felt sorry for them, especially when hundreds, if not thousands of people would be poking and prodding the bags everyday. Some looked so sad and frightened

That method of fish sale has always fascinated me. Its actually not that cruel to the fish. Its how fish are shipped, overnight, to all businesses and most private hobbyists. They live just fine that way for limited periods of time.
Funny, I see Glofish there at the bottom. I love those guys. Have several myself.

Thank you for the information. But I don't know how long the fishes are in these plastic tubes. I'm not sure that they were put back into a bassin after hanging there for a few days.

I don't know, but I don't think they put them back in a fish tank in the evening.

*vollzustimm* Welcher Respekt so manchen Lebewesen auf unserem Planeten entgegengebracht wird, ist erbärmlich.

Ja, finde ich auch. Habe ich auch schon in den anderen Kommentaren geschrieben.
An einer anderen Stelle habe ich gesehen, wie dort Hunde verkauft wurden (ich hoffe nicht zum Verzehr). Es war ein Ständer aus 16 Boxen, Plexiglas, ungefähr so aufgebaut wie ein Gepäckschließfach. Die hatten dort nicht viel Platz.

Das klingt schlimm ... aber man hört ja immer wieder solch furchtbare "Tiergeschichten" aus den asiatischen Ländern.

Danke... ich kann Dir leider auch nicht sagen, wie lange die Fische da so in den Plastiktüten hängen. Aber ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass die abends wieder in ein Bassin gelassen werden und morgens wieder rausgefischt.

Me, too. I know that you take fishes from the shop to your home in plastic bags, but never saw them hanging in the shop already.

uhm .. aren't those ateable? I heard they eat those fish, so their not meant for
a storage inside an aquarium. They are food. haha .. fast food?
or?

I know that chinese people eat dry gold fishes but I don't think that the eat those fishes. These shops are also full of parts for aquariums and equipment.
