This one ACHED to be hijacked. It was destined to be hijacked. It needed to be hijacked.

As far as what gets brought in, sometimes retailers don't have a choice. They have to buy in lots from some suppliers, and those suppliers chose lots.

For example, one fish most people will agree upon, that does not do well in captivity, but is often seen in stores is a Moorish Idol. However they are apparently easy to catch, and suppliers like that. So they catch them because it is another fish they can sell. So they put them in the lots with your common LFS fare, clowns, damsels ect, because they make money, and that is why they are in business.

Sometimes the people running the Marine section don't even chose what they get. One store in Langley is like that. The manager is a geat guy, but the person who does the ordereing is always ordering stupid things. Like 20 pairs of Yellowhead Sleeper Gobys. What store can house 20 pairs, and keep them all alive untill they are all sold? NONE!!!
