Mwahaha lol!
My LFS used to have a great guy there who knew fish and excellent fish. Then they lost him(fired or quit) and the store went downhill fast. Fish in awful conditions, they had every disease in the book! A fish veterinarian would have the time of his life, lol.
So to no wonder they are closing the fish department (Main business is puppies) and having 30% off everything. So I went today to see if anything was worth risking, and ended up with free Anubis, and 2 mollies that looked somewhat healthy. I always catch my own fish(easier and you get the ones you want!), and a lady comes up to me and asks if I can advise her on some fish to lol! The employees were nowhere in site, so I took over. She wanted Midas cichlids for her community tank(55) and I convinced get to get not 3 but a whole school of Congo tetras. Even funnier is the employee asked me, "do you know what these fish are?" Next guy comes and wants to get a fish for his 3 gal. The employee turns to me and asks me what the best choice is! It was hilarious! So I ended up giving him all kinds of advice, AND gave both of them a link to the site!
It was so cool! I hope they join!
Anyone else have something like that?
