All depends on who runs the fish Dept. When i moved to my current place a year ago, ALL the fish at my ***** were sickly. Half the tanks would be empty and the ones with fish were filthy. They had tangs in 10 gallon tanks they had anemones with no lights, the ugliest coral polyps ever. Then they transfered over a new person from out of state just to run the fish dept and now its completely revived. Every time I go in there she has her hands in there, and most importantly she gives people "good" advice and not salesman advice. They actually sell T5 fixtures now and higher end equimpent. I havent actually bought a fish from there yet but I would, just use the same cautions as if u bought it from any other place. You gotta admit the prices blow away most LFS.

If you must use ***** Just do as i have done, cut out the ***** handling. Have them order the fish you want. They have a list of fish available every week so you know if one is getting delivered. Have then call you when the truck gets in and take delivery of the fish before it goes from the shipping bag to their tanks

Technically you are wrong
research Amphiprion ocellaris and Amphiprion percula while very similar they do have differences
