Description

GloFish (or the tragically artificially dyed variants) are Black Skirt Tetras modified with jellyfish DNA or cruelly injected with toxic dye. Sold as children's toys, they are biological aberrations.

Mass inbreeding has destroyed their immune systems. Minimal ammonia causes rapid fin necrosis.

Care and observations

LETHAL FRAGILITY: Their half-life in home aquariums is minuscule. Any chemical variation leads to incurable Columnaris. DYED FISH CRUELTY: If they are illegally injected painted fish, the needle introduced pathogens into their bloodstream. They will die of septicemia within weeks of purchase.
