I hear ya on Wal-Mart. Once I waited 30 minutes to get some guppies and mollies scooped out (wanted to breed some feeders). So I finally just scooped out my own fish and labeled them. I gave myself a discount because I had to do the labor. :)

Ballsy. I wouldn't do that. You could get caught. And if the employee was a real prick, charged with petty theft. Now that would be fun!
 
Yay! Juvie!!!
 
the research i did on them led me to think they would hold their own since they are 1.5 to 2 times the size of the zebra i full well expected them to eat a few of my johani but its like the wolfs were actually sheep

the two surviving ones are doing fine in the 75 i transferred them to but im pretty sure for the week that i have to keep them in there they will eat one or two of my geo

i looked to a few sites on these fish this being one of them

and it lead me to the conclusion that they would be ok in that tank since they were suppose to be a mbuna hunter
 
I won't even look at the fish at Wal-Mart with intentions of buying unless they are feeders for my Red Ear Slider ain't nothing gone bother that things stomach. I think WM selling fish is cruelty and if you buy them you are just going to bring a disease to your own tank.
 
I made the mistake of listening to a LFS and bought a bunch of different small ciclids, and I think she gave me SA and CA. They did ok for a while and then just one of them kept killing and eating all the rest. From then on I tried doing research on what I'm buying before I did. I lost a bunch of money with those fish trying to fill up a 55.
 
Adding new fish to a mbuna tank can be tricky regardless of what you add.I usually take all the rocks out to break up territories before adding new fish.Some cover the tank for 24-48 hours of pitch dark to introduce new fish.Just dropping them in I would expect exactly what happened,to happen.Thats the lesson here.;)

Yeah, if I got caught, I was going to feign ignorance. Intent is actually a big part of shoplifting cases. I would have been fine.
