What, besides MONEY, are these companies thinking?!?!?!?

I was just working on a PO for science supplies for next semester. One of the suppliers also has live critters and aquarium supplies, so I decided to cruise through and see what they had. This is where I quit looking:
Aquaculture Live Rock, Living
"Cycle" your new marine tank with this living rock community. Living rock contains many microorganisms that help to rapidly establish a biological filter in a new tank. Set includes 9 lb of Fiji live rock, plus a pink tip anemone, pink brittle star starfish, and a decorator crab.
Ugh!!!

Just being sarcastic. I wish these companies would consider the animals that they are selling.
They do consider them....as items. Cheaply replaced and readily available items to be sold to the "I want it NOW" marketplace we now live in.
Foresight on impact is secondary as long as it is still legal and profitable.

I agree. Theses companies need to look at what they are selling. All 3 of these inverts, need a tank that has been running for AT LEAST 30 days, and the anemone should be running for at least 3 Months.... ARGGGGGGGGGGGG.
