FREE PUFFER CORPS T-SHIRT!

[puffercorps]

FREE PUFFER CORPS UNIFORMS!!!

How?

You want to have 2 lists. A list for stores w/Tanks Only, and a list for stores w/Puffs.

Call and ask if they got tanks. If they say yes, put it on your tank list.

Then ask if they got Puffs. If they say Yes, add it to your FREE TSHIRT list.

Send both lists to: [e-mail]


The Tank Only list will get flagged for maintenance.

The Puffer list will get flagged for maintenance, AND my personal phone call, letter, and follow ups till they quit puffers.

Thanks!

Great idea!

Every time I go into a pet store I look to see if they have puffer's. I have not found any puffers yet but will keep looking...

Keep up the good work with great ideas like this.

Peggy I have one for you...

I was in there yesterday and saw 3 puffers. Two of them where missing one of their pectoral Fin. They looked very unhealthy. All of the tanks looked dirty with dead fish every where. This is one place that I would not buy a fish from. They have other stores in Indianapolis too.

I have not been in these stores but if they have them in one they probably have them in the others.
Uncle Bills was one of the pet stores that got hit by authorities a number of years back for their puppy mills and out of protest I stopped buying from them. It use to be a very clean environment back then with spotless tanks and healthy fish but not now.
I dropped in on my way to, "The Reef" fish store to see if they had puffers for you. I will keep looking. The Reef does not sell fresh water puffers.

Are we referring to Walmart in specific, or just pet stores in general? Here in Seattle I have done much researching of my own on puffers and have tons of stores names and numbers who have them. If that's what your looking for I have at least 10 stores that carry wild caught puffers from Mbu to Fahakas to Green spotted puffers- malabar dwarf puffers (pea puffers) are as common as goldfish in the lfs here

I think it's incredible what you do, and wish there were organizations like yours here in Wa state. May i ask exactly how it works, what your process is? You save so many, is there a list people can get on to help adopt or find homes for the puffers? How do you go about rehoming the rescue-ees? And my final question is, how do i get involved? My heart is in animal rescue and rehabilitation, I volunteer at an animal shelter and always wished I could get involved in fish rescue but there is nothing here of that sort.
