Jan 21, 2014 at 4:02 comment added virtualxtc @MattS. Despite it's title, the article you linked to doesn't do anything to debunk secreted hormone feedback regulation, and even admits it's true. However it does bring up a good point about stress response acting similarly. And no, I'm not discussing GMO's I'm discussion gold fish. My answer to the question toxotes linked too hopefully will help.

Jan 18, 2014 at 18:31 comment added Spidercat I think with the hormones, you're thinking of genetically modified fish like Tilapia and Salmon, which will be injected with certain genes to grow a certain size, while it will probably be transferred to the pet industry, it hasn't yet for various reasons. The only genetically modified fish surviving in the pet industry right now are Glo-Fish. The tetras injected with a jellyfish gene to glow under a blue led light.
Jan 18, 2014 at 18:28 comment added Spidercat I'm not going to downvote this at the moment, but I want everyone who thinks that any fish can grow to their environment to look it up! While it's true that goldfish won't grow as large in a bowl as they will in a pond, that is because of the poor water conditions. I could keep a person in a closet with poor air quality and no way to move, the person would probably be smaller than normal too. People perpetuate these myths to justify how poorly they keep their fish, the sooner it stops the better. tfhmagazine.com/details/articles/goldfish-myths-debunked.htm
