Actually I think its the fact that you're doing all of this without any kind of sedation that bothers me. And the going to the hospital comment. When they are cutting things out and scrubbing, they just go ahead and don't stop when you are screaming. Oh thats right, fish can't do that. Theres a reason the SPCA was created. If thats the kind of hospital emergency room you are running, I suggest you talk to the local vet about getting some anaesthetic, I highly doubt you'd be getting any return customers if these animals could talk.
Bah, why do I even bother
