It's very disgusting to bring 100 mandarins in at once. Accidental or not.

Someone should start a tracking project to see how many of the fish from this purchase will survive in 1 month, 2 months, 3 months....We have a very large sample size.
Don't blame the LFS for this one. It was their supplier who sent so many when the store only ordered 2. Stores do their best to order both what will live & what will sell, but sometimes suppliers just "dump" their unwanted stock into a store's order knowing the store will not be able to ship the unordered excess back.
