Hahahahaha!
It was fleco wasnt it?
Hahahahaha!
Ooo the best was a man walked in and said he wanted to buy our tank of red wag Platies.
He wanted the display tank !!! The one that is part of the WALL of tanks and NOT removable !
I explained the "tank" was almost 1,000 gallons and he was just looking at a small divided section. He then wanted a 10g with the entire stock of Platies. Trying to explain he could have 2 fish, not 20, was not easy. Explaining holding tank vs home tank was a battle. I finally took this stubborn guy in back and showed him the massive sand bed filter and sump for the "Platy tank ".
I asked him to buy a book, Google some info and then come back. Fish are not just decor for the livingroom !
I hate that aspect of it. I just recently caught MULTIPLE TANK SYNDROME, so getting that is like saying, "Goodbye, money! I'll never see you again! So, goodbye!"
I can't guess who's who but I do know who's going to die in that bowl
Seen this on my Facebook wall I was totally surprised to see this. I had to screen cap it and show it to everyone.

Yeah I was super surprised when I seen that pop up on my Facebook. I looked at it dumbfounded or a minute or two, even when I was a kid I never kept a gold fish in a bowl.Wow........
Four goldfish in a maybe 2 gallon bowl. " Ladies and gents, fins and gills, this is the fish keeper of the year. She probably does a 50% water change every hour to keep it clean. Im glad these people are in our hobby. They show with perseverance, anyone can be an arrogant, idiotic, fool to keep 4 goldies in a bowl"
* Anything in a "..." is sarcasm if that wasnt obvious
Yeah, she actually picked out some pretty natural and useful decor so I'm all for it. Yesterday I tried sneaking the subject of adding live plants and new fish in the future, and she was like "Yeah I wanna see what plants we can put!" Followed by a "I can't wait to see new fishes in the tank!"
#winning LOL I just wish she was as into it as I am though.
My dad doesn't really care, as long as he's not paying. He just doesn't think it's all that impressive. Oh well
I got a better idea.. Just carve tank decorations out of bars of soap. You can get the cleaning action in a time release capsule!
Holy cow that's brilliant! A water conditioner AND decor at once?! Wow, I bet when my cories come in, they would be making tons of soap bubbles, perfect for healthy oxygen levels!
But I wonder what's better, Shea butter or Lavender scent? I don't know about you, I think they'd appreciate the Shea butter..who doesn't like butter?! Wow, I can't believe water conditioners are on the shelves anyway..what a scam!
Guys, if a employee ever tells you to use soap as a water conditioner, you have a right to get all the water conditioner you want. For free.
My corys prefer Irish springs! Could I take prize B for their stupidity and get to take 1 free groin shot at them?
Mine liked dove the best. Their scales are always so shiny. I call next in line for the groin shot, but maybe I'll just bring a baseball bat or a crowbar with me that day.
My platy love Olay! It's softer on their bioload. I wonder if shampoo would help with fin rot or make their fins shinier..hmmm
It's pretty sad because I saw someone holding a plastic container with a betta go up to him for advice. I just hope he didn't give the same soap speech ):
Conditioner works wonders for my African feather fin. He's almost show ready now
That poor, poor betta
Really?! I was thinking of using Pantene Master Pro V (okay in all seriousness, I use it on my hair so I know it's full name LOL)
Yeah..I still can't believe someone recommended me to use soap as a water conditioner..where do people get this stuff, really.
Bravo, I need to try that for my angel fish
And the human mind is a scary place, especially when it comes to fish
