you know, stories like this really freakin irk me.........how do the people at the LFSs figure that giving bad advice just to make a sale is a good business practice??????!.....I have literally lost sales because Im honest with people, and I think customers appreciate that.....Heres an example from back before I worked at a LFS and was a hobbyist and shopped around more......I was in a LFS once admiring a tank full of little wee 1-2" regal tangs when the LFS guy came and asked me what size my tank was.....at the time it was a 20g tank and I told him this.....he said " oh ya these fish would be great in a 20g".......Im thinking to myself" I didnt just fall off the reef truck and you just lost my business"......I literally have never bought one single thing from that store because of that bad advice......of course the advice shouldnt really have surprised me considering the same LFS has a small regal and yellow tang in a 14g bio-cube......
