I think I feel worse about the situation that common plecos are in. WAY to many of these go into tanks that are too small, and sometimes shorter than they have a potential to get.

I take in all the commons that are offered to me eventually I am gonna have a common pleco pool with a ton of crap factories... talk about vaccuming and doing water changes....
 
You can't put candy in front of a kid and expect him not to eat it. That is like Bill Clinton smoking a joint and not inhaling. If I am gonna look, I am gonna wanna taste the candy.

Next time you have the urge, close yer eyes and lick an old lady. That'll cure ya of that.
 
of course you will want to lick someones butt to get the taste out of your mouth.
 
How true Radley!
Then there is the people who you spend the time trying to educate them and get them started right who then go right ahead and do it the wrong way.
Any more, the educated or even the interested enough to learn the fish name customer, is far and few between and joy to have. Most folks want a shiney box over filled with day glow colored fish and oh yeah, they want it now and with no effort or maintenance on their part either and could care less about anything you have to say and sometimes get angry that you even try to help them do it right.

Yes yes very true. One time I cut in on a fellow associate to clarify something to their customer about Goldfish being pondfish and needing a pond not a bowl. The customer walked down the aisle with the other associate and asked her if their was a bug up my @ss. Yes, there was, HER!
 
over here (although a lot of people will tell you of obvious exceptions) a lot of places are pretty tight on trying to advise, and a lot of people listen and want to learn. at least this is my experience around my area
