I was at Petco and my brother got a Tiger Oscar. The lady told him, in 2 months your gonna need a 75 gallon tank. I laughed so hard.
When I got my 29 gal, the lady asked me: "What are you gonna out in it?"
I told her a channel cat and bluegill
She said:"You do understand that in about 1 month it will be 7 feet long!"
Me:No 3 feet
her:NO IT WILL BE 7 FEET LONG! WE SELL THEM!
me: Show me
She walks away!
That was sad and funny at the same time

Perhaps I should have narrowed your quote down.
But having crickets usually means she's a freak. If you know what I mean...

me and zfoster22 once saw a little 5 year old get mad and go catch his own fish outta the saltwater tanks....it was hilarious.i dont know how you did that. i would have poisoined his fish dude. little **********.Bogwoodbruce;2665438; said:I was well annoyed this saturday for two reasons....
Reason 1
I was wearing a slipknot t-shirt and i walked passed this kid and his parents i think he was around 11-12years old and loudly said "Slipknot suck!" If i wasnt staff i would have said somthing LOL.
Reason 2.
Me and a collegue were advising a customer about cycling a tank, the nitrogen cycle etc.... We were showing him some plants and explaining whats the best easiest to keep and then this customer who thinks hes staff and a know it all, was pointing out a cobomba and saying 'oh this is an easy plant that lots of people go for... I use it when breeding my white cloud mountain minnows'
He kept constantly butting in so i said oh your an expert fishkeeper breeding whiteclouds, he goes "yeah they are tricky" do you know how to breed them? I replyied saying yeah easy, drop the tempreture down to around 18c and lower and really increase the flow rate as they come from very cool, fast moving mountain lakes and streams......
He goes "oh good, you do know somthing!" I was very tempted to say somthing that i might have regretted. I said well.... if you look after your White clouds well and feed them good they will breed regulary without any triggers...... He said no thats not possible.
So my collegue took him away cos he could see i was getting frustrated
i totally know what your saying. i know a few kids that really just need to have the **** beat outta them atleast a couple times.Stump;2669345; said:I can actually feel your frusteration just reading that, Bruce...
I would've gone off on him. Sometimes those 12 year olds need a good slapping.
He didnt buy anything which is even worst at least when they spend some money the insults not so bad LOL.HPIZZLE;2736949; said:i hate kids in the shop too. even though im 13, but hey, im bigger than a typical kid

yes. Dusky Smooth-Hounds have been caught miles upriver. Rarely, but it has happened. Mississippi, I assume. They do, however, reach 5 feet longJeox;2736903; said:WHAT?!?!?!?!

Well about that oscar good she told him that he will need a bigger tank. Nothing wrong with saying that, her timing might be off but still good she actually cares.
About the chanel cat getting 7 feet long....
