THIS IS JUST AN ANALOGY! so dont take it wrong,, If you were chained in a basement and given food and water you would stay alive for a long time like that, but are you really living?.. for anyone telling themselves they will move a fish to a larger tank when they grow, is false logic because they will likely not grow or flourish in a tank that small to begin with. I'm not the tang police Just curious what size tank you have that he will go into and what size tank do your books recommend..?

oh yeah, and the bottle and bait idea is a good one
