The LFS in Victoria would tell you to get stuffed!! They generally don't give a damn about livestock. Fish and corals are a commodity. Bottom line is profit and can they afford that new truck they've been looking at. I tried to explain to my LFS that anemones are not a good choice for the average aquarist. Biggest seller we have, she claims! And she's right. I see 5 or 6 new anemones come in every shipment. Some die, some get sold (and then die). Exuse me ma'am, should I buy an anemone with this here clowny fish?? You bet, maybe buy two so it can choose!! And it happens everyday in every city that has a LFS. Asking any store to do the right thing in lieu of profit is going to get you tossed from the LFS PDQ!!!
