i was waiting to get my fish bagged once, and some guy and his son walk up and ask to get their water tested (its free), and one of the staff asked "is it freshwater or saltwater?" and the dad didnt know and asked his son who didnt know either, so the staff asked "if they add salt" and the duo didnt give a straight answer cause they didnt know again and so the staff just did a test for freshwater. i dont understand tho, why would you get your water tested if you didnt even know enough about your aqaurium to know if it was fw or sw. how would they know what the water test meant, rofl



i got the same customers,^^but for the staff they should know which it is from an ammonia test or just tasting it. so i blame the "staff" for not knowing that one
 
we had a lady come and get some clown fish and said it was marine so i ask ther the usal questions wot size tank/wot fish/how old is the tank / the ancerd and seamed like she new wot she was on about
she leaves with the fish 30mis later she runs in with 2 dead fish and said thay where bulliy her gold fish and it atacked them
so i burst out laffing and she takes it the rong way and storms up to the manger (my brother) tells him the story and ill i hear is him laffing in the offace and she storms out
 
My story is completly opposite from you. Ok I hear 2 people talking about a Rhom pirahna of something like that, then the guy all of a sudden says " I bet my goldfish could kill that" I was laughing my ass off.

one time, i saw these guys who were asking the stupidist questions about fish i have ever heard. one was, " Are cichlids agressive". not kidding
im sure wheve all asked that question at one time
 
i've got a good one...i was in petco one day and this guy walk in with his son and asks "I have a 2 gallon bowl withmy sons goldfish in it" employee:"well what are you looking for?" Father:"uhh how about this one" he pointed at a 4" lion fish, the employee goes"uhhh sir thats Salt water" man:"so?" employee" your goldfish is freshwater" and by this point im on the floor in the other side of the room laughing and the man looks at me and says with a really serious look on his face "WHAT?" i walk away and when he leaves i see him with about 6 snails. thats the best one i've seen yet
 
i was at a petco, and a lady asked asked the employee about the red-bellied pacu
"hey are those those evil fish?"
"which ones"
"you know, the ones that eat people. p something"
"i'm not sure...
"oh right, piranha, are those piranhas?"
"yeah, sure they are"

so she bought 3

it's okay to be a newbie and not know. doesn't mean one is stupid. what's bad though is when the worker at petsmart or worse a LFS has no clue. years ago i heard a guy at a LFS tell someone dwarf gouramis, some tetras, and a jack dempsey would get along just fine - that's dumb. a guy near me now will sell baby red tail cats to any kid with a 10g tank - that's just greedy. as for the piranahs, these kids watch youtube vids of people laughing while a group of them tears up a mouse and think that'd be just real cool to watch - that's being a sick bastard.
