Green Around The Gills

Is That An Aquarium Around Your Neck?

Marine biologists in Chengdu, China, have condemned a fad among young girls for wearing live fish as jewellery. Vendors say the fish can live up to three months in the sealed containers which contain water, fish food and two solid oxygen balls. They say the fish can be released in ponds or tanks by breaking open the pendants.
