I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I figured people should know.
First they ripped me off by selling me a baby Firemouth for $14.99. Disgusting.
Then I brought him back to get another fish and there policy is no refunds or
exchanges on fish. Then when the guy bagged the new fish he wrote the wrong
price on the bag making it more money then it said on the tank. What a horrow show.
I just bought him two days ago and had the receipt. He decided to give me $10.00 store credit.
I said what about the rest of the money...oh we don't do exchanges on fish. Worst policy I ever heard.
Quit ripping people off. Buyer Beware..just a warning
 
You knew the firemouth was $14.99 and you payed for it?
Why didn't you tell the guy the other fish that you bought that the price was wrong?
I'm not trying to say their right but it sounded like you knew all this at the pet store.I think you should of said something while you were there.
 
I payed because none of the other stores had Firemouth's in stock. I told him he wrote the wrong price and he fixed it. Just saying ran into some bad luck there.
 
Oh, well at least he fixed it. But you didn't have to buy the firemouth. Alot of pet stores have their own prices. Sorry about your bad luck there.
 
I can second that BTJs is pretty terrible. Not only are the fish usually in terrible health, the help is annoyed to actually help, and the prices are WAY too much. I remember they were the only local place that had otos in stock - they put them in a planted tank. I asked for 5-6, the guy caught 2, said "Im not getting anymore or ill uproot the plants" and was manhandling the two he caught. I was like.. never again. to OP: There are a number of FANTASTIC LFS on long island. I get all my stock from Aqua Hut in Coram, best place i've ever been to. Country Critters in Patchogue also has an amazing selection, and tons of salt water as well.
 
I don't know maybe so for some pet stores.I have returned fish back to Petco and Petland and got full store credit or was able to get a different fish without losing any money.
