Somewhat off topic, but related to the general theme of people who see fish as disposable.... has anyone noticed the guy saying if someone doesn't take his yellow lab he's gonna kill it!?!?

Awesome job! I would have been too afraid of the customer giving me dirty looks and the manager kicking me out.

Stupid is the petsmart guy that sold me 3 yellow labs when I had 1 common pleco, 3 rosey barbs, and 1 rainbow shark in a 29 gallon. Doing my research and asking questions here before buying another fish.

They definitely deserve a slap. I went into one of the fish stores in my town, who I don't get fish from, just plants. Myself and their so called 'Fish Expert' don't see eye to eye. Anyway, I brought an empty test tube with me. When no one was looking I fill the tube with water from one of their tanks. I got him to test the water in the tube, obviously he thought it was my water. He told me that the results where "off the charts" and that "I shouldn't be keeping fish in those horrible conditions". I asked him what I needed to do and he said proceeded to gather up all kinds of water treatments. He then told me that it would be a "good idea" to add a further 5 fish(mollies) to help cycle my tank. I waited until there was a few people at the counter and then told him that it was his water he had just tested. Needless to say he was speechless and not very happy. I don't think I'm too welcome in his store anymore...lol.
Now if I need plants, I just ring ahead and check if he is working that day!!!
every chance i get !!!ever wanna slap your lfs people in the back of the head?
