    I know that some of you have fish and im sure some of you know the proper way to care for them so. I'm moving about 120 miles away and i have a 10 gal fish tank i only have 4 fish and i was wondering what is the proper way to move them. i was going to put the tank in my car while i drove up there but i think the water would splash all ove the place.

    I was also thinking about putting then in bags like when you buy them and then putting everything back together when i get to the new place.

    I've got a better plan. Fill 4 cups with water, and then put 1 fish in each cup. Then put the cups in the cup holders

    Eat fish last night at old home, sh*t them out to christen new thone of new home. What better way to immortal these creatures than for them to be your first skid mark of your new home?

    That’s just evil, take them to a pet store or veterinarian and tell them to hold them until you get your tank set up and then go back and hope they haven’t been sold.

    and why would he do that? If he goes to a pet shop near his new home, then he might as well just bring them to the new home. If he does it near his old home, then he would have to drive back, and he would be stuck with the same problem of how to get them to his new home...

    You're right, that would be evil. A more humane idea would be

    1) Go to liquor store, stock up on beer

    2) Invite friends over

    3) Get drunk

    4) Dare friend to swallow fish

    5) Repeat #4 until all fish are gone

    6) Move

    7) Go to pet store in new town, get new fish

    8) Done!

    More profitable:

    1) cook rice, buy sake

    2) invite Japanese friends over

    3) charge big $ for the freshest sushi in town with overpriced sake

    4) buy new fish, retain profit.

    (FWIW, I'm not being racial, I am Japanese. What time should I arrive???? :)

    you know... you could skip steps 7 and 8... invite your friends to your new house... and hope that you can "retrieve" them alive from the toilet.....
