Favorite LFS "CUSTOMER" STORIES ...

[TTTT]

Yes, I was saying most of my fish are more then 10.99 and I am looking for a large tank for maybe an arowana. Sorry for the confusion.

All the pet stores that I go to sell ID sharks and say they only get 8"........

I almost gave employees at a LFS a story to share. When I first saw green tiger barbs, I thought they were tiger barbs with some sort of skin condition. It didn't help things that they were mixed in with normal tigers. Lukily, I kept my mouth shut. I wouldn't be surprised if other people have made the same mistake. Not a good looking fish, if you ask me.

When I first saw them I thought they where dyed....

yea...i work at petco too...and according to the training video, people may want to buy a cricket or two, not to feed their lizards, but for pets.

I have a friend that buys me ghost shrimp. and brine shrimp. She tells me she wants to keep them as pets in my tanks. Then she complains when my fish or sea horses eat them.......

I just remembered one! I was buying a raphael catfish from the old pet store on fremont in Seaside. The fish was for my 55 gallon. The owner kept trying to convince me to buy a tiger shovel nose. He said it would be stoked to be in my 55 gallon because they had it in a 20 gallon. I was 12 and I knew more than that idiot.

This isn't a fish story. But the customers that came into the store I work at, seemed to be in their fifties. Anyway I asked the lady if she wanted some help, she says no because her friends are getting the fish they want. Now, I happen to see one of her friends come in at least once a week and at least one of them tries to be educated about the fish he keeps.

As I am taking out the garbage to the curb, I hear her ask them if they have ever ate talk treats. So one of the guys says "No, have you?"'

Now here's the thing. She actually responds that yes, she used to do it when she was little.

I know that dogs and people are not to far removed. So that even if she really ate them, she would not be effected. But still.

Dog treats, anyone?

Talk treats? They sound good....


That's a bit of a strange one, though in all seriousness.

Some douche at petsmart told me turtles were fully aquatic and could be kept in a 2 gallon hex with a betta. Also, I have the same turtle species, and it is 8 inches!
