what's wrong with genetically altered pets? it's not painful or cruel and it isn't a major change in genes, just one or two, it's just like changing your hair color to blue, there is no real harm in it and it doesn't cause the animal pain.

There's really not that much cruel about GloFish. I believe their eggs are injected with jellyfish dna. If that's what happened with these frogs, I don't see anyhting cruel about it, though I may not like it. Now if you want to get into fish that are injected as adults, dipped, or tatooed, then that's a different story...Good luck taking care of them Jaymes. Maybe we'll be able to learn more about what happened with these frogs.
