I most definitely appreciate honesty, sarcasm, humor, etc. What I didn't appreciate was "Hi, you're an idiot. Here's some reading material to boost your IQ." Tact would have helped immensely. Those fish I had were from 18-22 years ago; as I said I have been out of the hobby for 18 years. Yes, I know NOW that they needed a bigger tank, but at 18-22 years old...what do you really know? Not much & with the absence of the internet back then, all I had access to was my LFS & what they told me. Just use a little tact next time. First impressions are priceless.
