Oh thats domb!! Why would they sell Monster fish?

Because people buy them.
 
man i hate it when they get monster growing fishes in their store....they dont even know anything about most of the fishes on the walls....=/ they have Red Bellied Pacus over here near my place where their i went their 2 months ago was like around 2" mark but now i went back their today....their already grown to 5".Plus when i went their to just test them about their knowledge....cuz they had a RTC in one of their tanks...iono WHY IN the likely World they would have these MONSTERS in stock....i saved it since it was only 2" with some 6-7" Red Bay Snooks and had some oscars the size of 5"....they were all trying to bite its whole body....so i quickly ask them "Can i take this poor lil catfish to my home?" they said sure.....=) but i asked them "How big do they get in captivity?" they told me " they get only 12"..... and i surely already knew how big they Truely get to over 3-5' long....so i dont trust them truly with everything them give to us by that i mean their info on them...they give false ones all the time.So stupid....
 
When you buy a fish to "save" it, you're simply increasing their sales.
 
plus they dont even have a larger tank than what they got ryt now on the walls....like what if the monster fish get to be like iono 16 or so inches....in a 18"long tank....see how horrible that is for some lfs having lil tanks.I now go to a new LFS that truely knows how to care for them till someone buys them.With proper questions asked they know whats ryt and wrong for them.The new LFS keeps their monsters in 240 gallon tanks and 55 gallons to 120 gallon tank.And some exotic feeders like frogs,crabs,crayfish,minows,and many more in their 20 gallon tank.Now that is a more better LFS here where i live

i didnt really say i was gunna save them....i just said if i was able to get it off their hands.Making them think i was just the ordinary buyer who loves fishes
 
best not to buy it if you have the time its best to go tell the manager what they have and if they know mabye te'll the kid working there it useually doesn't work but its worth a shot
