It depends on the store and its managers. The mangers are who hire the people who care for the fish. Give us some slack, the average fish customer in a big chain store is noob who wants to stay that way or someone who could give two ****s if the fish lives a happy life or not. Forgive them if they treat you like you're stupid, I've had to stop people from doing really retarded things. The rest of the customers are great and actually care about the fish. All in all, why take advice from some stranger that feeds fish at a pet store or a walmart? Check your sources, always. Some will know what they are talking about and others not so much.
