fish police

Intermediate 📱 Gen-Z / Internet Slang

Definition

The self-appointed aquatic hall monitors of the internet who patrol fishkeeping forums to call out your subpar tank setups. While technically correct about your betta's need for a 5-gallon minimum, their delivery has all the tact of a hungry piranha. Bonus points when the lecture comes from someone whose profile picture is clearly taken in their mom's basement.

Example Usage

I posted a pic of my new goldfish setup and within minutes the fish police were in the comments explaining why I'm basically a marine war criminal.
