[Scales]

I was channel surfing a couple of nights ago and caught a few minutes of some news report on the "glofish". My recollection is sketchy...there were interviews with some aquarium store owners as well as government officials. One governement "official" said (to the best of my recollection) that selling/owning such fish was in violation of some regulation/law. They were being seized from pet stores.

There are obviously some glofish that are not "sterile" because the reporter visited some Ontario guy who was breeding them and providing the fish to pet stores....it was bizarre to see a relatively large scale tropical fish breeding set-up in a shed in the snow covered wildrness. They showed both pregnant females as well as some fry.
