it asks, who keeps fish? nobody knows who keeps fish as pets since it didnt say anything about fish as pets. know what im saying?

peopel just assume the german has a fish for a pet since he doesnt have a pet.

What I meant by that was if anyone tried lookin for the puzzle on the net. I was sent this but I wasnt sent an answer so after I solved it I had to go lookin for the answer to see if I had gotten it right or not. So I was just sayin that in case anyone couldn't solve it and just went to search for the answer...

There's nothin wrong w/some critical thinkin! That was the point :icon_thumright:
