A US man who attacked his ex-girlfriend and impaled her pet fish has been sentenced to two years probation, a psychological evaluation and community service. Donald Earl Fite III, 27, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to animal abuse and domestic violence assault. According to court records, Sarah Harris had broken up with Fite but returned to her Portland apartment July 25 to find him lying on her bed, saying he wanted to get back together. When Harris tried to leave, Fite shoved her against a wall, grabbed her hair and tossed her against a bathtub. Harris fled but returned with an officer to find her fish - a bright purple betta named "DeLorean" - on the wood floor with a knife through it. According to court records, Fite quickly admitted killing the fish, telling police: "If she can't have me, then she can't have the fish." Fite's attorney, Tom Macnair, said Tuesday that killing the fish was a "very low point" in his client's life. "He is absolutely mortified and ashamed about what he did to the fish," MacNair said in Multnomah County Circuit Court. Fite, who had no previous criminal history, declined to make a statement. Harris did not attend the hearing. In a phone interview with The Oregonian newspaper, she recalled crying hysterically when she saw the fish with a knife sticking through it. "Donald bought the fish for me, and I'm sure he knew how much I cared for it," she said. Betta fish, also known as Siamese fighting fish, are colourful freshwater aquarium fish that usually are between 5 to 7 centimetres long. Prosecutor Eric Zimmerman told Judge Eric Bergstrom that Harris plans to get a memorial tattoo of the fish and wanted Fite to pay for it. Bergstrom, however, declined to make Fite pay for the tattoo.

I am moving apartments and I'm the only one who takes care of my 20 gal aquarium. I had to add water to the tank and reinstall the filter and handle everything inside the tank. I'm six weeks pregnant and didn't realize what I was doing until just now. I read about certain illnesses handling other animals, though it was cats, not fish. Is handling freshwater aquarium fish ok? i guess its stupid to ask now, i've already set up their tank and washed my hands a few times. Also, I had a scrape and a cut on my hand. I washed that too and used peroxide. Does anyone know if what I did was super bad or not? Thanks in advance.

My friends mother wants to get rid of her Plecostomus... Large sucker fish. As they have gotten older and larger they have become violent, killing any small fish she adds to the tank. So she offered to give them to me. and while I only will agree to take one... I Dont want to take on too much by taking both when they are each roughly a foot long (and have grown to two feet) and I ONLY HAVE a 30 gallon tank. which was also provided by his mother. Now between all of the equipment i understand that im going to be spending about a 100$ to get started with the pump, filter, bubble thingy, food gravel and such.... But my main concern is .....CAN I KEEP JUST THE ONE FISH? Some animals are verrryyyy attached to another pet they have spent all their time with. I dont have enough tank space for both! and should I get another fish to keep in there (not small but certainly not as big) to keep up the algea growth? ANY advice from an expierenced sucker fish or freshwater aquarium owner would be GREAT!!! thank you soooo much!

Which animals can go in a warm watered freshwater aquarium or paludarium? Can and newts or salamanders go in or would the water be too warm? What other animals can go in except turtles which are too large for my tank? Thanks

I have a community tank of some polypterus endlicheri bichirs and freshwater rays. Recently the bichirs started scratching and a friend of mine recommended me the Jungle Aquarium Parasite Clear. However the packaging didnt state if the medication is safe for rays and other scaleless aquatic animals. Anyone has tried applying it with rays before?
