when i tell people about stuff like that at pets stores they just look at me like stfu kid u dont know what your talking about lol
Ya I hate that, theyre like "Im older than you, so I know more". My dad used to tell me "Even when Im wrong, Im right". I was like whaaat:screwy:? and he said "Im the one with the wallet". lol
random tangent.
 
I would have mentioned something. I've gotten into a few verbal arguments and thrown out of one petstore for correcting an employee and having them call me out. Also, I hate it when employees think they know more then me because they're older.
 
I wouldn't call myself a kid, but I am young (21). I did tell the guy that he's going to need more than a 125 for just the fish that he already had and the employee looked at me puzzled and said nothing. I don't believe the guy bought anything in the end.
The sad thing is that the pimas in the store have been there for just about 2 years(I asked if they were the same one's) and they haven't grown an inch and look to be malnurished. They have 3 of them(about 14'') in a tank that measures about 4'longx1'tallx1'deep.

I think it would have been perfectly fine if you had just said, listen buddy these fish are huge and have the opportunity to reach 6'

I guarantee if he had said that, the employee would have come back with the classic, "They don't get that big in aquariums, they grow to the size of the tank."
