What is the best or most unusual fish you have ever discovered in a feeder tank of your LFS? Post a photo of it IF you still have it....

Me first: "Everglades Pygmy Sunfish" (sorry no photo - it was many years ago.)

This is the thread that inspired this thread...

Decades ago I went to K-Mart to by a Chinese Algae Eater. The one the clerk caught was the only one that wasn't stuck to the glass. It turned being a baby pike cichlid. That was my introduction to cichlids and been hooked ever since

Our LFS for some reason keeps Shovelnose catfish in the guppy tank. Not really a rare or odd fish, but an odd place to have it.
