I'm curious as to what will be asked of me if the Petco district manager calls. As for Wal-Mart, they should stop selling fish if they can't take care of them or worse, they don't care. Just stick with selling aquarium kits and pet food.
I think 2-4 trained people would more than do it. Simple steps could have minimized what I saw. Don't even get me started on Wal-Mart. Why they even bother carrying live fish is a mystery to me. But this petsmart fiasco puts Wal-Marts neglect to shame. And that is a most dubious...
Well my friends, I'm sure you'vr heard all the stories before. I just have to share mine about Petco.
I went to pick up some more fish for the bottom level of my 20 gallon high. Petco is near, so I figured I'd have a go there and grab some cory cats. The story goes down hill from here.

the magnet is pretty strong so if you place felt end outside the glass over where the snail is and lower the other mag in water using the string an inch or half an inch away from the glass, bam! just be careful your fish don get smooshed.
I have read dwarf puffers can be very mean. they may chomp my guppies. Khuli or yo yos sound like the best bet for me. Just need to find a store that sells them around here.
AshleyNicole, good advice for everyone here about taking steps to prevent an infection. I'm springing for some...

The problem is no one around here seems to carry khuli loaches. One store did but refused to sell them...
took the loach back to the LFS, teen store clerk looked at me like I was nuts the refused to give me a refund. whatever. the battle continues. I hear that if I lower my amount of feedings the fish will be fine but the youngersails may die off. may keep them under control. Lettuce trick...
that will be my next step. I guess the LFS will say anything to sell you a fish. I better move him to a bucket so he does not do anything nuts tonight. i'll bring him back tomorrow. :drain:
Well the tiger loach was a bust. Jumped out of the 10 gallon and into the filter media basket of my aquaclear. Placed him in my 20 gallon. A tank that's still to small for him in my estimation. LFS said he's be fine. Just don't know. :roll:
