Dat Boot!
An MFK brother recently purchased a trio of Festae. Supposedly 1M/2F.

They were advertised on CL. The following pic was used in the ad. Also was labeled to be the male of the 3some.:headshake

I inquired about the trio a week prior. The above photo was the only one in the ad. I asked for more pics and was told they would come Tuesday of the following week. In the meantime I ran this photo past my man RR and he reminded me we had seen this pic before. He was right.

I texted the seller again with this photo and asked if the fish in the photo was part of the trio for sale. I didn't ask if it was the kind of fish but THE FISH! He said yes but they had been sold. The fish in the ad is at least 12". The ones advertised were listed up to 7". Can U say RED FLAGS?

The ad price was unbeatable, but the deception was undeniable.:liar:

Too bad it wasn't legit cause that female is Sweeeeeet!!!! Some peoples kids huh:/ its sad that people are like that, especially with fish! I mean come on.
 
It really is bad for business, I have been going thru so much with lfs selling Mayan cichlids as True Festae and to spend money on s fish that isn't what you want is just dead wrong, needles to sayi don't buy from lfs any more...
