Good post Rob. Welcome back to Canada eh!
I think they're a great store myself and have no problem with their ethics. Allen, John and Jeff all shoot from the hip and give you honest answers (which of course are their opinions). I too have witnessed them turn customers off of certain animals because they knew people wouldn't be ready for them. I haven't found a store that puts as much effort and money into their systems.
On the subject of Powder Blues:
I've never seen a vibrantly coloured small one. They have some of the nicest I've seen in the larger sizes.
Allen has spent some time finding a good supplier and in his experience he's had a high success rate (98% survival) with this species from this supplier.
I've never kept a PBT but my reading indicates they belong in an experienced hobbyists tank. My one attempt with this species ended badly but I didn't start with a healthy animal. I personally probably wouldn't try again.
